Quick answers.
How do I get the rebate?
You install qualifying equipment first, then apply to your utility with your invoice and the system’s AHRI certificate, which is the efficiency rating sheet for the equipment. The deadline is 180 days after purchase in Pasadena and 12 months in Los Angeles and Glendale. Your utility pays by check or bill credit.
What is a ton?
A ton measures cooling capacity. Most programs pay per ton, so a bigger system earns a bigger rebate. Some cap the total.
Which equipment qualifies?
Every program sets minimum efficiency ratings (SEER2, and HSPF2 for heat pumps). The biggest rebates go to heat pumps, and some programs only pay for heat pumps.
Do I need a permit?
Most of these programs want the installation to have a city permit that the city has signed off on. The program details above list what each utility asks for.
