HOME PERFORMANCE PROGRAM

SMUD takes a turnkey, whole-house approach to energy efficiency upgrades.

Upgrades are bundled to deliver greater rebate options and savings. Follow these simple steps to take advantage of SMUD rebates on home performance improvements:

Home improvements = rebates:

If your heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system is old, it’s probably inefficient. Replacing it can trim your energy bills and increase the comfort of your home. SMUD offers up to $3,000 in rebates on energy-efficient heat pump heating and cooling systems installed by a qualifying contractor.

If you are going to do multiple improvements, such as a heat pump water heater, a heat pump HVAC system or insulation, our Home Performance Program may be for you.
