NWCPUD now offers ductless heat pump (DHP) rebates for multi-family properties with five or more units in buildings up to three stories high. Call us for more details!
Important: Pre-approval from an Energy Management team member is required before installation for all ducted and ductless heat pump upgrades and conversions to qualify for EEUP rebates. All state and local permitting requirements must be met to receive the rebate.
Step 1
Contact NWCPUD’s Energy Management Team before installation for pre-approval and to review local permitting requirements. Using the chart below, confirm your existing heating system and the new system will be eligible for an EEUP rebate.
Step 2
Install pre-approved equipment at your residential property using an Oregon CCB licensed and bonded HVAC contractor. Homeowner installs are not eligible for an EEUP heat pump rebate.
To find a registered and verified contractor for your project, visit our Contractor Portal page or utilize Comfort Ready Home’s Contractor Finder to search for registered EEUP Installers.
Step 3
Submit the required rebate application and final contractor installation invoice to Energy Management, and then schedule an NWCPUD Rebate Inspection.
