If the furnace in your home is more than 15 years old, it’s time to consider replacing it. Old furnaces, including forced air, wall, room and floor furnaces, can have energy wasting standing pilot lights. Newer models with electronic ignition systems have an Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) of 94% or higher and can run up to 15% more efficiently than standard models. Not only that, you can get up to a $300 rebate on the purchase and installation of a qualified furnace.
New Furnaces Cost Less
- Save up to $1,615 over the product’s estimated 18 year lifetime*
- Save up to 66 therms per year*
- Help reduce greenhouse gas emissions
*Savings based on installation of a more efficient furnace (94% AFUE) to replace a less efficient unit (70% AFUE) of the same size.
How to Get Your Rebate
- Customer must have natural gas distributed by PG&E to the installation address.
- The central natural gas forced-air furnace must have an Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) rating of:
- AFUE ≥ 94% < 96% – $150 rebate
- AFUE ≥ 96% – $250 rebate
- Residential single family or multifamily customers who also have electricity distributed by PG&E to the installation address in climate zones 11, 12, or 13 can apply for a rebate when the central natural gas forced-air furnace has a built–in variable speed motor (VSM).
- AFUE ≥ 94% < 96% with Built-In VSM – $200 rebate
- AFUE ≥ 96% with Built-In VSM – $300 rebate
See a list of products and find your climate zone. Be sure your model meets or exceeds the requirements above and your home is located in a qualifying climate zone prior to applying for a rebate.
