It's a legit rebate program, but I haven't used it.

I haven't used it yet, but I've had people calling me trying to get a $5500 rebate on a heat pump.   I haven't figured out exactly what constitutes a cold climate ASHP rating yet, but that's what you need to get the $5500 rebate.

[Admin]

Must be a new heat pump that is ENERGY STAR® certified, or that meets CEE Tier-1 qualification (i.e. has a minimum efficiency rating of SEER 15/HSPF 8.5/EER 12.5);
Must meet the specifications of NEEP's Cold Climate Air-Source Heat Pump Specification (NEEP, 2017 or more recent);

Must have an indoor coil that is listed on the Eligible Cold Climate ASHP and Cold Climate ASHP Coil List.

May be a new installation where an individual is building a new custom home or a replacement of an existing system;

interesting, I will have a look, none of my suppliers websites allow me to search for ccASHP designation, which would make it a lot easier to find equipment.
