This rebate is in addition to the $350-$450 BED rebate available to your contractor when they purchase the unit. This applies to both a first and second mini-split heat pump system. Check with your contractor about this additional rebate. This rebate from your contractor is included in the 75% maximum rebate.
This rebate is available to all BED residential and small business customers in existing buildings. For new construction projects (including new homes and new auxiliary buildings), please contact BED for separate rebate offerings.
Natural gas customers should be advised that heat pumps will likely increase annual heating costs while reducing a home’s carbon footprint.
Rebates are designed to support heat pump installations that displace a significant percentage of the space heating load of a building and are installed in the main occupied spaces. Garages, auxiliary buildings and other smaller spaces are not eligible.
Have the following items ready:
- Your Burlington Electric Department account number. It is printed on your monthly bill.
- A scan or photo of your contractor’s invoice marked “Paid in Full.”
- If you are financing through VSECU, VFCU, or GMCU: a scan or photo of quotes from your contractor.
