A recent piece in the Alameda Post makes a straightforward case: when your gas water heater eventually needs replacing, switching to a heat pump model is one of the simplest, most impactful upgrades a homeowner can make. Better air quality, lower bills, zero greenhouse gas emissions, and if you're on Alameda Municipal Power, a rebate of up to $1,500 to help cover the switch.
Go further and the rebates do too
The $1,500 AMP rebate for a heat pump water heater is a great starting point. But homeowners who go a step further and upgrade their heating and cooling at the same time can access up to $7,000 in total rebates. The only requirement is that the heat pump AC meets efficiency standards, which simply comes down to choosing the right model. Harvest takes care of that.
The 2027 deadline makes acting now the smarter move
As the Alameda Post notes, Bay Area air quality rules will make electric water heating the standard replacement option starting 2027. Homeowners who plan ahead get to choose their installer, take their time, and capture every available incentive. Those who wait until a system fails won't have that flexibility.
Whether you're in Alameda or elsewhere in Northern California, other homeowners in your area have already made the switch with Harvest. Join them, and do it on your terms.
