Cheapest time for heat pump installation in Oregon
HVAC demand collapses in the mild shoulder seasons, so installers discount to keep crews busy. The most expensive time to buy is during a heat wave or cold snap, when a dead system forces a full-price emergency replacement.
Rebates & incentives in Oregon
Heat pumps qualify for the largest 2026 incentives — this is the equipment state and utility rebate programs are built around.
The federal 25C tax credit (up to $2,000 for heat pumps; $600 for high-efficiency AC or furnaces) and the 25D credit ended December 31, 2025 under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act — neither is available for 2026 installs. The remaining federal help is the IRA Home Electrification & Appliance Rebates (HEAR): up to $8,000 toward a heat pump for households under 150% of area median income, paid at point of sale where a state has launched its program.
Verified July 2026. Rebate budgets deplete and program windows change fast — confirm current amounts and eligibility with your utility and the DSIRE database before you budget. Costadia does not administer these programs.
