How much is the Con Edison heat pump rebate in New Rochelle?
Amounts for a single-family home. You get one line from this table, not several.
| What you install | Standard | In a Disadvantaged Community |
|---|---|---|
| Air-source, Category 2a with integrated controls (no Weatherized Tier) | $2,500 | $4,500 |
| Air-source, Category 2b, old system decommissioned | $7,000 | $8,000 |
| Air-source, Category 2b, Weatherized Tier | $10,000 | $11,000 |
| Partial to full load, single-family (apartment $1,500) | $4,000 | $4,000 |
| Ground-source, whole 1–4 unit building (Weatherized Tier $30,000 / $40,000) | $25,000 | $35,000 |
| Heat pump water heater ($1,500 for applications Sept 1–Nov 30, 2026) | $1,300 | $1,300 |
Con Edison takes the incentive off your contractor’s invoice, so you never wait for a cheque. Your home must pass a “service adequate” check first.
Heat pump: NYS Clean Heat (run by Con Edison)
Best case for a whole-home system; most homes get less, as the table shows.
What makes New Rochelle different
New Rochelle is a Westchester County city on Long Island Sound, served by Con Edison for electricity and gas. Plenty of homes here still burn heating oil, and oil-to-heat-pump switches are where the whole-home tier makes the most sense.
New Rochelle has a wide mix of homes, from large older houses near the Sound to post-war capes and newer downtown apartments. Bigger older homes often need a multi-zone system, which raises the price but not the rebate cap, so insulation first matters here.
Coastal flooding is a real concern in low-lying neighbourhoods near the water. Ask your installer to mount outdoor units on raised stands or brackets if you are in a flood zone.
Downtown condo owners should look at the apartment amounts in the table, and check building rules before planning a unit on a balcony or roof.
What does not stack
Clean Heat is the Con Edison rebate, so never add the two together. Clean Heat is capped at 70% of cost (85% in a DAC). There is no separate federal HEAR cheque — New York delivers it through EmPower+. The federal 25C/25D tax credits ended December 31, 2025.
Income-qualified? EmPower+ can cover far more than the utility rebate. Check the state DAC map too — it can raise your amount.
EV chargers in New Rochelle
Con Edison has no rebate for buying a home charger. Its SmartCharge New York program pays about $400 a year on average for charging off-peak. PowerReady stopped taking new Level 2 applications on April 22, 2026.
What to do next in New Rochelle
- If you are near the water, ask about raised mounting for outdoor units.
- Get an energy audit on larger older homes before you size the system.
- Get 2–3 quotes and ask each contractor to show the rebate tier on the quote.

Common questions
How much is the heat pump rebate in New Rochelle?
NYS Clean Heat (run by Con Edison) pays up to $11,000 (Disadvantaged Community, Weatherized Tier, old system removed) for a whole-home heat pump in New Rochelle, depending on home size, whether you remove the old system, and DAC status.
Does it matter if my New Rochelle home is in a flood zone?
It does not change the rebate, but it changes the install. Outdoor units should be raised above expected flood levels, which can add some cost, so ask for it in writing on the quote.
Is the federal tax credit still available for heat pumps?
No. The federal 25C and 25D credits ended for anything installed after December 31, 2025.
