Summary:
Inland Power & Light offers a variety of rebates through the Conservation Services program. The Performance Tested Comfort Systems (PTCS) Heating/Cooling & Duct Sealing Rebate program offers incentives for qualifying heat pumps installed by a certified dealer. Homes with 50% or more of the ductwork located outside of a conditioned space must have the ducts tested and sealed by a PTCS certified contractor to qualify for a Heat Pump rebate. Additional incentives are available for certain Energy Star appliances and water heaters.
