All-electric house in Ithaca, baseboards from 1990, bills $550 in January. Any NY program to swap to heat pumps for free?
WAP-NY installs air-source heat pumps when baseboards exceed 12 kW and audit shows >30% savings. My friend’s 1,100 sq ft ranch got two Mitsubishi units last October—zero cost. Need RG&E bills averaging >$400 winter, thermostat photos, and income docs. The site has a heat-pump eligibility calculator: https://www.utilityassistance.org/ny/wap-ny/ – audit confirmed her wiring could handle it. Install took two days; January bill $190 and rooms actually warm. Old baseboards left as backup.
