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 Islip different
Islip is a Suffolk County town served by PSEG Long Island for electricity and National Grid for gas. Its many 1950s–70s ranch and Cape homes are a good fit for ducted or ductless whole-home heat pumps.
Islip’s south-shore neighbourhoods are close to the Great South Bay, so homes in flood zones should have outdoor units raised on stands.
Many homes have forced-air systems with existing ducts, which can make a ducted heat pump simpler than a ductless one.
Islip includes hamlets like Bay Shore, Brentwood, Central Islip and Sayville, and parts of the town are mapped as Disadvantaged Communities. On Long Island that moves a market-rate home from $4,000 to $5,000, so it is worth checking your exact address.
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 Islip
- If you are near the bay, ask for raised outdoor units.
- Ask whether your existing ducts can be reused.
- 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 Islip?
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 Islip, depending on home size, whether you remove the old system, and DAC status.
Does being 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.
