The savings for central heat pumps are up to $300/ton on qualifying models. These must be AHRI certified and meet minimum SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Rating) and HSPF (Heating Seasonal Performance Factors) tier levels, as well as include an indoor and outdoor unit.

Packaged heat pumps and heat pumps that include furnaces do not qualify for the discounted pricing. Still, there are many great models to select from that do qualify, and we’re here to help you find the perfect choice for your property.
Mini Split Heat Pumps
For mini-split heat pumps, SCE is offering up to $600/ton off of qualifying models. Like qualifying central heat pumps, eligible mini-split heat pumps must meet minimum SEER and HSPF levels, as well as be AHRI certified.
