Can the Electric Resistance to Air-Source Heat Pump Conversion be combined with other rebates?

Yes — it stacks with Efficiency Boost (income-qualified multiplier), Community Energy Challenge — moderate income, Daikin Instant Rebates — ductless. Stacking is only as good as the program terms in force on your install date, so treat a combined figure as a plan until each program confirms it.

Who files it, and how the money reaches you

Your installing contractor files it. You never see a cheque. The rebate is filed against your project and shows up as a credit on the job, which is why the contractor has to be inside the program network before the work starts.

Your installing contractor files the rebate with PSE; the credit is applied to your project rather than mailed to you. For the Efficiency Boost amount the installer collects an on-site income attestation at the time of the visit, so bring household income information to the appointment.

PSE requires a contractor inside its network

PSE pays this class of rebate only when the work is done by a Trade Ally or Recommended Energy Professional — DIY and out-of-network installations are excluded, however good the workmanship. Ask us to confirm network status for your specific project before you count on the money, and get the answer before you sign anything.

What it stacks with

Programs that can sit on top of this one, each with its own conditions.

Stacking is a claim about program terms, not arithmetic. We build totals from the programs that have confirmed they combine, and quote anything unconfirmed as a separate line so you are never counting on a number twice.
