Find out what you qualify forNV Energy PowerShift rebates (2026)
NV Energy's PowerShift program is the primary utility rebate for Southern Nevada. Amounts scale with the efficiency (SEER2) of the equipment you install. Higher-efficiency systems earn larger rebates.
Central air conditioners
$250 to $475 depending on SEER2 tier (15.2 and up). The most efficient qualifying systems earn the top rebate.
Heat pumps
$250 to $550 by SEER2 tier (15.2 to 19.1+). Heat pumps earn the highest utility rebates because they heat and cool efficiently.
Income-qualified households
$350 to $650. Households that meet NV Energy's income guidelines receive an enhanced rebate on qualifying equipment.
Smart thermostats
NV Energy offers rebates on qualifying connected thermostats that enroll in its demand-response program. We confirm the current amount at the time of install.
Rebate tiers and funding are set by NV Energy and can change during the year. We confirm the exact amount your equipment qualifies for before you commit, so the number you hear is the number you get.
Federal programs: what is and is not available in 2026
Federal HVAC incentives changed recently, and there is a lot of outdated information online. Here is the honest, current picture for a 2026 install:
Federal 25C tax credit
The 25C energy-efficient home improvement tax credit expired on December 31, 2025. Systems installed in 2025 or earlier were worth up to $2,000, but 2026 installs are not eligible. Be careful of sites still advertising it as active.
HEEHR / HEAR home rebates
The federal High-Efficiency Electric Home Rebate (up to $8,000 for heat pumps) is funded for Nevada but not yet accepting applications as of mid-2026. We are tracking the launch and will apply it for eligible customers the moment it opens.
Manufacturer and seasonal rebates
On top of utility and federal programs, equipment manufacturers such as Lennox run their own seasonal instant rebates and financing promotions, and these can often be combined with your NV Energy rebate for bigger total savings. Because they rotate throughout the year, we quote the current offers when you request an estimate. See our Lennox heat pump and water heater rebates page for a current example.

Your rebate questions, answered
Who is eligible for HVAC rebates in Las Vegas?
Most homeowners installing a qualifying high-efficiency system are eligible for NV Energy PowerShift rebates. The amount depends on the equipment's SEER2 rating. Income-qualified households can receive an enhanced rebate. We confirm your exact eligibility before you commit.
How much can I actually get?
In 2026, NV Energy PowerShift pays up to $475 on a qualifying central AC and up to $550 on a qualifying heat pump, and up to $650 for income-qualified households. Manufacturer and smart-thermostat rebates can add to that. Your total depends on the specific equipment you install.
What happened to the federal tax credit?
The federal 25C tax credit expired on December 31, 2025, so 2026 installs are not eligible for it. The federal HEEHR heat-pump rebate (up to $8,000) is funded for Nevada but not yet open for applications. We will apply it for eligible customers as soon as it launches.
Can I combine different rebates?
Often, yes. Manufacturer rebates can frequently be combined with NV Energy rebates for greater total savings. We help you stack every incentive you qualify for.
How do I apply, and when will I get paid?
