Arizona – Home Electrification and Appliance Rebate (HEAR) Program

Arizona's Efficiency Arizona program offers rebates up to $14,000 per household for heat pumps, heat pump water heaters, heat pump clothes dryers, electric cooking appliances, insulation, air sealing, and electrical upgrades. If you earn less than 80% of your county's Area Median Income (AMI), you can receive up to 100% of project costs covered; if you earn between 80% and 150% AMI, you qualify for reduced rebates covering up to 50% of costs. Apply online at EfficiencyArizona.com, and you can choose to work with a qualified contractor or purchase select appliances through participating retailers with a coupon.

Contractors in Arizona's Efficiency Arizona program can offer customers significant financial incentives for electrification and efficiency upgrades, with rebates ranging from $840 to $8,000 depending on the technology. Contractors must be authorized through the program, participate in the qualification process, complete post-installation inspections, and work with homeowners who have been pre-approved for eligibility based on income (under 150% AMI). The program streamlines customer acquisition by handling eligibility determination and connecting qualified homeowners directly to your business.

The Arizona Governor's Office of Resiliency administers the $76 million federally funded HEAR program, which launched in December 2024 with single-family rebates and a multifamily pilot planned for Q2 2025. The program targets households earning under 150% of county AMI, with full rebates (capped at 100% of costs) for those under 80% AMI and partial rebates (50% of costs) for those between 80–150% AMI. Operations include dual pathways—contractor-led for most measures and retail for select appliances—requiring eligibility verification, contractor authorization, home assessments, and post-inspection compliance to distribute rebates capped at $14,000 per household.
