What National Grid actually offers
National Grid administers the statewide NYS Clean Heat program in its New York territory. The program manual specifies that an eligible ERV or HRV installed alongside a qualifying heat pump and envelope upgrade can also receive an incentive — but only through the Custom Track, which is engineered and priced per project rather than listed as a flat residential rebate.
NYS Clean Heat Custom Track (bundled only)
Syracuse gets more snow than almost any other mid-size American city, and its older housing stock means a lot of homes were never built with a planned fresh-air path.
We checked National Grid's published residential rebate materials directly rather than assume ventilation coverage would match the heat pump rebate — it doesn't, and we'd rather say that plainly than list a number that isn't real.

Stacking it with other programs
The Custom Track incentive only applies when your contractor bundles the ERV or HRV into a heat pump and envelope upgrade project and submits it as a package — a standalone ventilation purchase won't qualify on its own. Get a NYS Clean Heat participating contractor to confirm whether your project meets the bundling requirement before you count on any number.

Common questions
Is there an HRV or ERV rebate in Syracuse?
National Grid doesn't list a fixed HRV or ERV rebate for Syracuse homeowners. The only incentive path is the NYS Clean Heat Custom Track, and it only pays out when the ventilation system is bundled into an eligible heat pump and envelope upgrade project — priced individually, not published as a flat rate.
