Can I ask why you got a heat pump with such a high SEER rating? I look at flyers advertising heat pumps near me and the price differential between 16 SEER and 18/20 SEER units just doesn't seem worth it at all even accounting energy savings.
- windexh8er 3y agoBecause it was a wash. I was paid a higher rebate from the state, the coop we have for power and the manufacturer. It didn't make financial sense to buy anything less.
- GenerWork 3y agoYour manufacturer gave you a rebate on top of the state and coop rebate? So you have $1500 from the coop, what kind of rebates did you get from the state and manufacturer?
- windexh8er 3y agoYes. The manufacturer (Carrier) has a program called "Cool Cash" - the linked PDF is an example. The "Cool Cash" program I had was different [0]. The state also had passed a new energy law that provided rebates [1]. It's been so popular that they're expanding that even further in 2023 for air source heat pumps with, potentially, more money.

I got a $1400 rebate from the manufacturer at the time $2000 tax credit from the fed and another $1200 from the state.
