FAQs
Commonly Asked Questions
How Much Can I Save With Georgia HVAC Rebates?
Eligible homeowners may qualify for up to $14,000 through the HEAR program alone. Combined with the HER program, federal tax credits, and utility rebates, total savings can go even higher.
Can Rebates Be Combined With Federal Tax Credits?
In most cases, yes. HEAR and HER rebates can be combined with the federal Section 25C credit, letting you claim 30% of remaining out-of-pocket costs up to $2,000 for qualifying heat pumps.
What HVAC Equipment Qualifies For Rebates?
Heat pump systems, heat pump water heaters, ductless HVAC, and high-efficiency central air conditioners all qualify. All equipment must be ENERGY STAR certified.
Do I Need An Energy Assessment Before Applying?
For the HER program, yes. An energy assessment is required to verify projected energy savings before work begins. AComfort can connect you with a qualified assessor.
How Long Does The Rebate Process Take?
Timelines vary by program, but most rebates are processed within 60 to 90 days after installation and documentation submission.
Is There A Deadline To Apply For Georgia HVAC Rebates?
Program funding is limited and allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. Applying sooner improves your chances of securing the full rebate amount before funds are exhausted.
Do I Qualify If I Already Have A Heat Pump?
HEAR requires replacing a non-electric or older, inefficient system. Simply replacing an existing heat pump with the same type may not qualify. AComfort can review your current system and confirm eligibility before you commit.

AComfort helps Metro Atlanta homeowners take full advantage of available rebates, incentives, and federal tax credits — so you get a high-efficiency HVAC system at a fraction of the cost.
