BWP heat pump HVAC rebate amounts

As listed on BWP's Electrify Your Home page (checked October 2026):

  • Standard: $1,000 per ton, up to $2,500
  • Low-income residents (enrolled in BUSS or Lifeline): $1,000 per ton, up to $5,000
  • Affordable housing providers: $1,000 per ton, up to $5,000

The same amounts are listed for ductless mini-split heat pumps. BWP also lists a $750 panel-upgrade incentive that can be claimed alongside an electrification rebate (not on its own).

Rebate programs change and funds can run out. Always confirm current terms with BWP before you buy.

What qualifies

  • An existing Burbank home served by BWP. New construction doesn't qualify.
  • The new heat pump must replace gas heating equipment.
  • The work must be permitted and pass inspection by Burbank Building & Safety.

Documents BWP asks for

  • The signed application and a W-9 for whoever receives the rebate.
  • An itemized invoice with the contractor's name, phone and license number, the install address, and equipment make and model.
  • A copy of the finaled permit.
  • A "before" photo of the gas equipment being replaced and nameplate photos of the new equipment.

When we install your heat pump, we put together the invoice, permit and photos in the format BWP asks for, so the application is ready to send.

FAQ

Questions Burbank homeowners ask

Still wondering about something? Call 818-654-4442.

Do heat pumps work in Burbank?+

Yes. Burbank's climate is close to ideal for heat pumps. Winters are mild enough that a modern heat pump heats efficiently, and in summer it works exactly like a central air conditioner.

Is there a Burbank heat pump rebate?+

Burbank Water and Power's Residential Building Electrification program has offered $1,000 per ton for heat pump HVAC, up to $2,500 (up to $5,000 for income-qualified customers), when the heat pump replaces gas heating in an existing home. Program terms change, so check BWP's current rules; we provide the itemized invoice, finaled permit and nameplate photos the application asks for.

Is there still a federal tax credit for heat pumps?+

Federal tax credit rules have changed recently, so check current IRS guidance or ask your tax preparer before counting on one. Utility rebates like BWP's are separate from federal credits.
