How much is the PSEG Long Island heat pump rebate in Oyster Bay?
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.

Best case for a whole-home system; most homes get less, as the table shows.
What makes Oyster Bay different
The Town of Oyster Bay is in Nassau County and is served by PSEG Long Island for electricity and National Grid for gas. Most homes are on gas, so the main reason to switch is cooling plus heating in one system — savings versus gas are smaller than versus oil.
The Town of Oyster Bay stretches from the North Shore to the South Shore across Nassau County, with a mix of large older estates and dense post-war developments like Levittown-style capes and ranches.
Post-war capes and ranches are often easy candidates: simple layouts and existing ducts in many of them.
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 Oyster Bay
- If your home is a post-war cape or ranch, ask about a ducted system using your existing ducts.
- Compare your gas bill to a heat pump estimate before deciding.
- 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 Oyster Bay?
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 Oyster Bay, depending on home size, whether you remove the old system, and DAC status.
Is a heat pump worth it in Oyster Bay if I already have gas?
It can be, especially if you also need new AC, since one system does both. The savings versus gas are smaller than versus oil, so ask for a bill estimate with your actual rates.
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.
