Many homeowners know about heat pumps because of their superior energy efficiency and ability to heat and cool your home—but heat pumps can do more than that. Heat pumps can also be used to heat water, either as a stand-alone water heating system or in tandem with a traditional storage tank water heating system.
Heat pump water heaters utilize the same high-performance technology as heat pump heating and cooling systems (by moving heat instead of creating it), which means they can help you decrease your energy usage. Since heat pump water heaters are so efficient, they also qualify for several incentives, including the rebates from TECH Clean California, which are launching October 30th.
Keep reading to learn more about heat pump water heaters and the TECH Clean California heat pump water heater rebate program* that can help make your installation from Brower Mechanical more affordable.

Why Upgrade to a Heat Pump Water Heater?
California has the ideal climate for a heat pump to operate at peak efficiency. Our mild winters and Mediterranean summers in the Rocklin area provide plenty of ambient heat for a heat pump water heater to draw from in order to bring you reliable hot water any time of the year.
Here are just a few of the many benefits of heat pump water heaters:
- Safer alternative to water heating
- High efficiency to save energy
- Longer lifespan than traditional systems of up to 15 years
- Eligible for rebates and incentives, like TECH Clean California rebates
TECH Clean California Heat Pump Water Heater Rebates
TECH Clean California has partnered with The Switch is On to educate homeowners throughout the state about the benefits of low-emission homes and motivate them to convert to electric-powered home systems with generous rebate programs.
The total rebate amount is dependent on your area and the equipment you are upgrading in an existing home. TECH Clean California rebates for heat pump water heaters are currently available for SoCal Gas customers, but they will expand statewide this fall.
All heat pump water heaters must be ENERGY STAR certified and/or meet Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance (NEEA) Tier 3 rating. Homeowners must also work with a qualified participating contractor, like Brower Mechanical, for installation.
Additional Heat Pump Water Heater Incentives
TECH Clean California incentives may be combined with other rebates to lower your cost even further. Local utility companies such as SMUD, PG&E, and Roseville Electric also offer incentives for qualifying heat pump water heaters. Rebate amounts and eligibility change often, so please check with your local utility company for the latest rebate amounts.
