Rebates Are Still Available for Your HVAC Upgrade
If you’ve been putting off replacing an aging heating and cooling system because of the cost, there are still opportunities to make an upgrade more affordable.
While Xcel Energy rebate amounts changed on October 1, 2026, rebates are still available for qualifying HVAC equipment. Sensible Heating & Cooling can help you understand the incentives available for your project and determine which options may apply to your home.
The average Xcel rebate is now approximately $4,000, depending on the equipment and project. Eligibility, rebate amounts and program requirements vary.
Another Opportunity: Power Ahead Colorado
There’s another incentive program worth knowing about.
Power Ahead Colorado offers a $1,500 rebate on qualifying cold-climate air-source heat pumps. The program provides a preapproval process and allows the rebate to be combined with eligible utility or local-government incentives.
Heat pumps provide year-round heating and cooling and can use less energy than conventional heating and cooling systems. They can be an option for homeowners looking for improved comfort and energy efficiency.
How Sensible Can Help
Sensible Heating & Cooling can help submit your qualifying project to Power Ahead Colorado for review before work begins. Power Ahead Colorado then verifies the project details and eligibility and confirms the rebate amount.
To qualify, projects must generally:
- Be located in a participating DRCOG municipality or county
- Be a retrofit of an existing building
- Be a single-family, multifamily or commercial property
- Use qualifying equipment
- Be completed by an approved Power Ahead Colorado contractor
- Be submitted for preapproval before installation begins
