Rebate bands by equipment and building type

What your rebate band likely looks like.

Five rebate bands cover most NYC HVAC projects. The exact number inside a band depends on equipment platform, project scope, and DAC status, which is what the on-site visit confirms.

  • Residential single-family, full Clean Heat replacement

    Fossil-fuel system removed or permanently disabled. Mitsubishi Hyper-Heat M-Series or Daikin Aurora. Federal 25C adds up to $2,000. Net out-of-pocket on a typical $30,000 to $45,000 brownstone conversion lands $20,000 to $30,000.

    $8,000 base · $10,000 DAC
  • Residential apartment, full Clean Heat replacement

    Co-op or condo individual unit. Through-wall PTAC swapped for ductless M-Series. Federal 25C stacks. Net out-of-pocket on a typical $10,000 to $16,000 single-unit conversion lands $4,000 to $10,000.

    $4,000 base · $5,000 DAC
  • Multifamily prescriptive (Full Load ASHP w/ decommissioning)

    Whole-building heat pump conversion with boiler decommissioned. Plus $1,000 per unit DHW. On a 24-unit building: $144,000 in Clean Heat alone before federal stack and any envelope-tier bonus.

    $5,000 per dwelling unit
  • Commercial Clean Heat (full electrification)

    Engineer-modeled MMBtu calculation. Mitsubishi City Multi VRF, Daikin VRV Aurora, air-to-water heat pumps, heat recovery chillers. Section 179D ($5.81/sqft) and Section 179 plus bonus depreciation stack.

    $120/MMBtu
  • Geothermal (residential or commercial)

    Residential 25D pays 30% with no cap. Commercial Section 48 ITC at 30% base plus adders (+10% domestic content, +10% energy community). Multifamily geothermal is the one Clean Heat track open to new construction.

    30% federal 25D or Section 48 · uncapped

The five inputs Vinco runs on the site visit

Five inputs that determine your rebate.

Building type, equipment platform, project type, Disadvantaged Community status, and project cost. Vinco confirms each on the site visit, then writes the engineered proposal with the rebate amount applied.

01

Building type

Single-family vs apartment vs co-op vs condo vs commercial vs multifamily 5+ unit. Each track has its own rebate structure. Residential follows the prescriptive ladder above. Commercial uses the per-MMBtu custom path. Multifamily 5+ unit uses the prescriptive $5,000-per-unit path on full electrification. Vinco scopes the right track during the site visit.

02

Equipment platform

Mitsubishi Hyper-Heat (H2i) M-Series, Mitsubishi City Multi VRF, Daikin Aurora, Daikin VRV Aurora, air-to-water heat pump, ground-source geothermal. Every Mitsubishi and Daikin platform Vinco installs is on the NYS Clean Heat approved manufacturer list. Geothermal unlocks the uncapped 25D or Section 48 ITC, which often makes the math very different from a typical air-source heat pump project.

03

Project type (full vs partial)

Full replacement (fossil-fuel system removed or disabled): unlocks the larger Option 1 prescriptive amount. Partial replacement (keep existing as backup): unlocks the smaller Option 2 amount. Most NYC Clean Heat conversions take Option 1 because the LL97 emissions math and the federal credit math both favor full electrification.

04

Disadvantaged Community (DAC) status

NYS Climate Justice Working Group designates DACs. Residential rebates jump from $8,000 to $10,000 single-family, $4,000 to $5,000 apartment, $2,500 to $4,500 partial single-family. The residential rebate cap also rises from 70 percent of project cost to 85 percent in a DAC. Vinco checks DAC status by ZIP and address during the site visit.

05

Project cost (capped at percentage of total)

Residential Clean Heat is capped at 70 percent of project cost, 85 percent in a DAC. So a $5,000 base rebate on a $7,500 project hits the cap at $5,250. Vinco sizes the rebate against the engineered project cost so the cap math is right. Federal credits (25C, 25D) are not capped against utility rebates the same way; they apply to the deductible basis after utility rebate.

For the real number, book a site visit.

The estimate visit is free. The Vinco technician walks the building, confirms equipment and scope, runs the rebate math, checks DAC status by address, and writes the number onto the proposal. That number prints onto the contract and the final invoice as a line-item deduction.

Rebates net the install cost, labor rate sets the rest.

The Clean Heat rebate comes off the invoice as a line-item deduction. The remaining install cost is calculated from the published Vinco labor rate plus equipment plus permits.

Questions

Rebate calculator, answered.

Six questions building owners ask before scheduling a Vinco estimate visit. If yours is not here, call (718) 835-6820. The dispatcher answers 24/7.

01What does the NYS Clean Heat rebate calculator estimate, and why is it a content page only?
This page is a content guide to the inputs that determine your NYC HVAC rebate: building type, equipment platform, project type (full vs partial), Disadvantaged Community status, and project cost. The functional rebate calculator widget is deferred to a future release. In the meantime, Vinco runs the full calculation as part of the free estimate visit, where the technician confirms equipment, project scope, and DAC eligibility on-site, then walks the rebate amount through line by line on the proposal.
02What rebates may a NYC heat pump project qualify for?
Residential single-family full replacement pays $8,000 base ($10,000 in a DAC). Residential apartment pays $4,000 base ($5,000 in a DAC). Multifamily 5+ unit prescriptive Full Load ASHP with decommissioning pays $5,000 per dwelling unit. Commercial runs custom MMBtu rates: $120/MMBtu full building load electrification, $70/MMBtu phased, $200/MMBtu domestic hot water. Federal 25C stacks at up to $2,000 on residential heat pumps; 25D pays 30 percent uncapped on geothermal; Section 179D, Section 179, and bonus depreciation stack on commercial. NYS Clean Heat low-interest financing covers the residual.
03What is a Disadvantaged Community (DAC) and how does it affect the rebate?
A Disadvantaged Community is a geographic area designated by the NYS Climate Justice Working Group under the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act. Residential Clean Heat rebates jump from $8,000 to $10,000 single-family full replacement, from $4,000 to $5,000 apartment full replacement, from $2,500 to $4,500 partial single-family. The residential rebate cap also rises from 70 percent of project cost to 85 percent in a DAC. Many parts of the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, and Upper Manhattan fall under DAC. Vinco checks DAC status by ZIP and address during the site visit.
04Can I stack the Con Ed Clean Heat rebate with federal tax credits?
Yes. Residential 25C Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit pays up to $2,000 for a qualifying heat pump (claimed on IRS Form 5695). Residential 25D Residential Clean Energy Credit pays 30 percent of total cost on geothermal with no cap. Commercial 179D, Section 179, and bonus depreciation stack on commercial Clean Heat. The Clean Heat utility rebate reduces the federal-credit deductible basis (you cannot claim federal credit on a dollar of cost the utility already paid), but the stack is otherwise additive.
05Why doesn't this page give me an exact number from a form?
The actual rebate amount depends on the engineered project cost, the specific equipment platform, the DAC status of the address, whether the fossil-fuel system is removed or kept as backup, and whether the building qualifies for residential, multifamily prescriptive, or commercial custom tracks. A static form would give a misleading number for many real-world cases. Vinco runs the full calculation on the site visit and writes the rebate amount onto the proposal verbatim, which then prints onto the contract and the final invoice as a line-item deduction.
06How do I get a real rebate number for my NYC building?
Get a free estimate visit. A Vinco technician walks the building, confirms the equipment platform, project scope, DAC status, and existing system removal path, then writes the engineered proposal with the Clean Heat amount, federal credit framing, and financing terms. Most residential proposals close within 4 to 8 weeks from first call. Multifamily and commercial proposals take longer (3 to 6 months end-to-end) because of Con Edison pre-inspection and Notice to Proceed timelines.
