PSEG Long Island refunds up to $300 on an electric or heat pump clothes dryer, $100 on a refrigerator or washer, and $25 on a freezer — provided the model is on the live ENERGY STAR Most Efficient Qualified Product List, capped at 50% of the purchase price.
A lot of Smithtown's mid-century subdivisions were built before central air was standard equipment, which means plenty of homeowners here end up touching both an appliance and an electrical circuit in the same project — worth asking whoever handles the appliance install to check panel capacity while they're there, especially before an induction range.
On PSEG's form a heat pump dryer counts as an electric dryer, earning the same $300 ceiling, and it typically pulls about half the power of a standard resistance dryer over a year of laundry. Browse heat pump dryers at Home Depot →
Induction isn't part of PSEG's rebate lineup, but it's still a real upgrade: faster to heat, cooler to the touch shortly after you're done, and it needs magnetic cookware — a quick magnet test on your current pots settles that before you buy. Browse induction cooktops → or induction ranges →

Common questions

Up to $300 for an electric or heat pump clothes dryer, $100 for a refrigerator or clothes washer, and $25 for a freezer, capped at 50% of the purchase price. The model has to be on PSEG's current Qualified Product List.
Should I bundle an appliance purchase with electrical work in Smithtown?
If your home predates central air, it's worth asking, since older circuits sometimes need attention before an induction range or heat pump dryer can be safely installed. Ask the same contractor doing the appliance work to check while they're already on site.
