Sacramento County · SMUD
Sacramento is our home base: our office sits on Watt Avenue, so most of the homes we assess in the city are a short drive away. Because Sacramento is served by SMUD rather than an investor-owned utility, the rebate landscape here is its own thing — SMUD runs its own electrification and equipment programs that stack differently than what a homeowner in a PG&E territory would see.

The city's housing stock ranges from pre-war bungalows in Land Park and East Sacramento to 1960s ranch homes in Arden and newer infill north of downtown. Older homes often pair an original gas furnace with an add-on AC and undersized ducts, which is exactly the situation heat pump programs were designed to address — and the reason a duct and load evaluation matters more here than a straight equipment swap.
Combined, these programs can be worth anywhere from hundreds to several thousand dollars depending on the program, your household, and the equipment you choose. We don't publish dollar figures because they change — we confirm what your address and household actually qualify for before you commit to anything.
Statewide heat pump incentives apply to Sacramento homes replacing gas furnaces or aging electric resistance heat. Since SMUD territory has its own electrification path, we check state and SMUD programs together so nothing overlaps or cancels out.
Federal efficiency tax credits are unaffected by which utility serves you, so Sacramento households that owe federal tax can pursue them alongside SMUD rebates. We supply model numbers, efficiency ratings, and invoices for your preparer.
Sacramento has a large share of income-qualified households, and support in that bracket can cover most or all of a qualifying project. Verification is handled by the program administrator, not by us.
SMUD is the electric utility for the city, and its rebate menu typically covers heat pump HVAC, heat pump water heating, smart thermostats, and electrical panel work tied to an upgrade. Your service address determines exactly which SMUD offers apply.
Honest caveat: we are not a government agency or a utility, and we don't administer these programs. Availability, income limits, and amounts in Sacramento are set by the program administrators and can change without notice.
