Your providers
Confirm the installation address, electric utility and gas provider or fuel type.
Current-source screening · Verified August 31, 2026
Find the programs tied to your address before the equipment is ordered.
Rebates are not automatic. Your utility, fuel type, equipment, income rules and application date can all affect approval. For a qualifying replacement, Proven Comfort checks the current official programs before equipment is ordered. We show any possible rebate separately from the installed price.
What the screening captures
A rebate name is not enough to promise a benefit.
A proposal should name the official source, current status and rules that could change the result.
Current status
Check whether the program is open, paused, out of funds or limited by an annual budget.
Equipment rules
Match the proposed system to the program's efficiency, fuel, size and certification rules.
Important dates
Find any approval, reservation, invoice or filing deadline before work begins.
Contractor rules
Check whether the program requires an approved contractor before assuming the project qualifies.
Clear proposal
Keep the installed price separate from a possible rebate until the program confirms it.
Georgia's two statewide home-energy programs do not currently have the same status.
Georgia's official update reviewed August 31, 2026 says new HEAR applications have been paused since August 14. New HEAR fuel-switching projects stopped on August 10. Proven Comfort will not advertise a new HEAR heat-pump rebate as available while that pause remains.
The same state notice says Home Efficiency Rebate applications continue. Approval and the final amount can depend on energy savings, household or property rules, available funds and the program process.
- Use the Georgia program portal or listed program contact for the latest status.
- Confirm whether an approved contractor is required before signing or starting work.
- Keep application, equipment, invoice and installation documentation together.
- Treat every amount as potential until the responsible program confirms it.
Utility programs are screened by the account serving the property.
Georgia Power, GreyStone Power, Cobb EMC, Sawnee EMC and Atlanta Gas Light offer different programs. Some cover items such as tune-ups, duct sealing, heat-pump changes, replacement systems or high-efficiency furnaces. The rules and funding differ. Some 2026 funds, including Cobb EMC's HVAC tune-up vouchers, are already used up.
For a qualifying replacement, Proven Comfort records the customer's utility or gas provider. We check the current program page and flag any step that must happen before equipment is ordered or installed.
Federal tax language requires a separate date check.
The IRS currently says the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit applied to qualifying work placed in service through December 31, 2025. Proven Comfort will not show that credit for a 2026 installation unless federal guidance changes.
Tax rules control eligibility—not the HVAC contractor. Check the current IRS guidance and speak with a qualified tax adviser about your situation.

HVAC Rebates & Incentives questions
Does Proven Comfort guarantee that I will receive a rebate?
No. Proven Comfort can check current official sources and document the proposed equipment. The utility, agency or program administrator decides eligibility, funding and payment.
Is Georgia's HEAR heat-pump rebate open now?
The state program update reviewed August 31, 2026 says new HEAR applications are paused effective August 14, 2026. We will recheck the official page before discussing it in a proposal.
Will a rebate be deducted from my installation price?
The installed price and potential incentive should be shown separately unless a program has formally approved a contractor-applied amount. Many rebates are paid or confirmed after required documentation is submitted.
What information helps with the initial screen?
The installation address, electric utility, gas provider or fuel, current equipment type and the replacement being considered are the best starting points.
