How much is the PSEG Long Island heat pump rebate in Babylon?
Amounts for a single-family home. You get one line from this table, not several.
| What you install | Standard | In a Disadvantaged Community |
|---|---|---|
| Whole-home heat pump, market rate | $4,000 | $5,000 |
| Whole-home heat pump, moderate income (under 80% AMI) | $5,000 | $5,000 |
| Whole-home heat pump, low income (under 60% AMI) | $7,500 | $7,500 |
PSEG Long Island is not part of NYS Clean Heat. The heat pump must be on the NEEP cold-climate list, sized for the whole home, installed by a participating contractor, and pre-approved before work starts.
Heat pump: PSEG Long Island’s heat pump rebate
Best case for a whole-home system; most homes get less, as the table shows.
What makes Babylon different
Babylon is a Suffolk County town on the south shore of Long Island, served by PSEG Long Island for electricity. Gas comes from National Grid where there are gas lines, and homes without a gas main heat with oil or electricity, which is where a heat pump replaces the most expensive fuel.
Babylon’s south-shore neighbourhoods are on the Great South Bay, so homes in a flood zone should have outdoor units raised on stands.
Parts of the town may be mapped as Disadvantaged Communities. On Long Island that moves a market-rate home from $4,000 to $5,000, so check your exact address against the state map.
What does not stack
Long Island is not part of NYS Clean Heat, so there is no second state rebate. 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.
What to do next in Babylon
- If you are near the bay, ask for raised outdoor units.
- Check your address against the state Disadvantaged Communities map.
- 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 Babylon?
PSEG Long Island’s heat pump rebate pays $4,000 (or $5,000–$7,500 if you qualify on income or live in a DAC) for a whole-home heat pump in Babylon, depending on home size, whether you remove the old system, and DAC status.
Does living near the Great South Bay change my heat pump install?
It does not change the PSEG rebate, but homes in flood zones should raise outdoor units above expected flood levels. Ask your installer to include it in 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.
