White Plains Heat Pump Rebates 2026: Con Edison

What White Plains homeowners can really get in 2026, checked against Con Edison and NYSERDA on October 3, 2026.

Short answer: In White Plains, the main heat pump rebate is NYS Clean Heat (run by Con Edison): up to $11,000 (Disadvantaged Community, Weatherized Tier, old system removed) for a whole-home system, taken off your contractor’s bill. It is one rebate — not several that add up. Lower-income households can get much more through EmPower+, and the federal tax credits ended on December 31, 2025.

How much is the Con Edison heat pump rebate in White Plains?

Amounts for a single-family home. You get one line from this table, not several.

What you installStandardIn 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.

Up to $11,000

Best case for a whole-home system; most homes get less, as the table shows.

What makes White Plains different

White Plains is the Westchester County seat and is served by Con Edison. Its mix of single-family homes and condos means both the single-family and apartment amounts below can apply, depending on your building.

White Plains has many 1950s–80s single-family homes with ducts already in place for central air. When the ducts are in good shape, a ducted cold-climate heat pump can replace the furnace and the AC in one step.

The city also has lots of condos and co-ops downtown, where the apartment amounts apply and board approval is often needed for outdoor equipment.

Westchester County has its own programs from time to time, so ask your contractor whether a county incentive is open when you apply — but don’t count on one until it is confirmed in writing.

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 White Plains

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 White Plains

  1. Have your ducts checked for leaks and size before choosing a ducted system.
  2. Condo owners: ask your board about rules for outdoor units first.
  3. 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 White Plains?

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 White Plains, depending on home size, whether you remove the old system, and DAC status.

Can I reuse my ducts in White Plains?

Often, yes. Many homes here have central air ducts. A contractor should test them for leaks and size; leaky or undersized ducts should be fixed or the system will not keep up in winter.

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.

What you'll actually save each month

Rebates cover the upfront cost, but the number that decides whether this is worth it is the payback period — how long until the monthly savings pay back what you spent out of pocket. Here's the real math using Con Edison's actual current electricity rate:

A modern cold-climate heat pump typically moves 2.5–3.5 units of heat per unit of electricity it uses (its "coefficient of performance"), which is why it beats electric resistance heating on cost even at the same per-kWh rate. Con Edison's high electric rate means a heat pump's cost advantage over gas heat is narrower here than in most of the country — the real number depends heavily on your specific home. We didn't find a reliable current per-therm gas rate for Con Edison territory to compare against — rather than guess, we're leaving gas-furnace payback math out until we can source it properly.
