Duke Energy offers rebates to eligible customers who upgrade to qualifying high-efficiency heat pump systems. Rebates are applied for by the licensed contractor (Bayside) and credited directly to your electric bill. Typical processing is 2–3 billing cycles. Rebate Period: Ongoing.
TECO rebates are applied for and paid to the licensed contractor. The rebate amount is deducted from your invoice total at the time of purchase — instant savings, no waiting for a check. Rebate Period: Ongoing. Availability subject to funding.
Many HVAC manufacturers — including Trane, Carrier, Rheem, and Amana — offer seasonal rebates on select equipment. These are offered in limited windows throughout the year. Ask your Bayside technician about current manufacturer promotions when getting your quote.
