The HEAR and HOMES Program Rebates: Now Available to Support Energy Efficiency
Energy costs are climbing across eastern North Carolina. Many homeowners are looking for ways to cut monthly bills without sacrificing comfort. One of the biggest hurdles to upgrading is the upfront cost. The Home Electrification and Appliance Rebates (HEAR) and Homeowners Managing Energy Savings Rebate Programs are designed to help. By offering generous rebates on high-efficiency heating and cooling equipment and water heaters, the HEAR and HOMES program rebate grants make it easier to modernize your home and save money.
What are the HEAR and HOMES Rebates?
The federal government wants you to switch to electric appliances. The HEAR and HOMES programs make that switch much more affordable. Both grants are funded by the Inflation Reduction Act. The HEAR and HOMES grant funds have been released to help homeowners. They cover the cost of upgrading inefficient HVAC systems and water heaters to energy-efficient systems that reduce energy usage by at least 20%.
These programs provide rebates to qualified households that install energy-efficient equipment and make home upgrades. Examples include heating and cooling systems, insulation and air-sealing improvements, ductwork and water heaters.
Eligibility and rebate amounts depend on household income. Families with lower and moderate incomes can qualify for higher rebate percentages, making upgrades even more affordable. This program is available to homeowners, tenants, and landlords. Advance Mechanical Plumbing, Heating and Air Conditioning is a certified contractor.
