Rebates for Furnaces, Central Air Conditioners and Water Heaters

Savings are in the air and water.

As much as half the energy used in your home goes to heating and cooling. So your home's heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) system has a big effect on your utility bills.

DTE Energy's Your Energy Savings^SM program offers great rebates on select, energy efficient air conditioners, furnaces and water heaters.

• Upgrade your old HVAC system today and take advantage of rebates from $100 to $350

• Upgrade your water heater to an ENERGY STAR model with rebates from $35 to $150

Boost your purchase savings even further by taking advantage of promotional rebates offered by equipment manufacturers and potential Federal tax credits of up to 30% of the purchase price for equipment, up to a maximum household credit of $1,500.

Combining Rebates

Equipment can be combined to qualify for multiple rebates. For example, if you are served by both Detroit Edison and MichCon, you can purchase a qualifying 94 percent  AFUE gas furnace ($300 rebate from MichCon) combined with a qualifying 15 SEER air conditioning system ($250 rebate from Detroit Edison) to qualify for a total rebate of $550.

What if replacing your heating and cooling equipment could save you $200 a year? According to ENERGY STAR^® it can. With heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) accounting for 50 percent of your total energy use, switching to energy efficient components can lower your bill and still keep you comfortable all year.

Consumers Energy has valuable rebates on energy efficient air conditioners and furnaces that can make your purchase more affordable. If your system has reached its rated lifetime, usually between 10 and 15 years, use our rebates to upgrade to high-efficiency equipment. It will give you a striking difference in energy costs.
