Navigating the rebate landscape can be confusing. Thousands of dollars are left on the table every year because homeowners simply don't know what programs exist. Here are the top 5 rebates you should know about this year.

1. Heat Pump HVAC Systems (TECH Clean California)

Switching from a gas furnace to an electric heat pump is a priority for the state. Rebates can range from $3,000 to $6,000 depending on your utility territory and equipment efficiency.

2. Smart Thermostats

Almost every utility (PG&E, SCE, SDG&E) offers a rebate for installing a smart thermostat like Nest or Ecobee. These typically range from **$50 to $75**, sometimes instantly at the point of sale.

3. Induction Cooktops

Moving away from gas stoves? Local air districts and community energy providers are offering rebates of **$250 to $750** to help you make the switch to safer, cleaner induction cooking.

4. Window Upgrades

Replacing single-pane windows with high-efficiency double or triple-pane models can qualify you for state incentives and various local utility financing programs like REEL.

5. Electric Heat Pump Water Heaters

This is one of the biggest energy savers for a home. With Golden State Rebates, you can often recoup a significant portion of the installation cost.
