How much you get
Burlington Electric Department (BED) — Burlington's municipal utility — pays up to 75% of installed cost for a qualifying cold-climate heat pump, with a base rebate plus an income-qualified adder that can bring a high-performance ducted system up to $7,950 total. BED customers are not eligible for Efficiency Vermont's separate income bonus, since BED runs its own program. Confirm your exact tier and equipment eligibility directly with BED before booking a contractor.

Common questions
What's the heat pump rebate in Burlington?
Burlington Electric Department pays up to 75% of installed cost for a qualifying cold-climate heat pump, and income-qualified households installing a high-performance ducted system can reach up to $7,950 total. Because Burlington runs its own municipal utility, BED customers use BED's own heat pump program rather than Efficiency Vermont's.
Do I need to confirm this rebate is still active in Burlington?
Yes. Utility and state rebate programs change funding levels and eligibility rules through the year. Confirm current status with Burlington Electric Department (BED) or Efficiency Vermont before assuming a figure is live.
