OpenEfficiency Arizona

Arizona is taking applications now, through Efficiency Arizona, run by Governor's Office of Resiliency. The largest heat pump figure it prints is Up to $8,000. It is one of only 13 states out of 50 where a homeowner can apply today.

  • Arizona prints 8 figures, the largest of them up to $14,000 per household for whole home project cap. Each one below carries the sentence or table row it came from.
  • The heat pump line is Up to $8,000. It applies from 1 September 2026 only as a replacement for existing electric equipment, not for a gas system.
  • Income decides the size of the award in Arizona, or whether there is one at all. Income sets the share of project cost paid, and a household above 150 percent of area median income is shut out unless it qualifies through a listed benefit programme instead.
  • The work has to go through a contractor the programme has approved. a heat pump must go through the contractor path, where the programme assigns a qualified contractor; only appliances can be bought with a retail coupon
  • Applications go through Governor's Office of Resiliency.

Every figure the office prints

All 8 Arizona figures

Each figure carries the condition Governor's Office of Resiliency attached to it, and the condition is the half that decides whether the figure applies to a particular house. Where the office wrote a sentence beside the number, that sentence is reproduced whole and linked to the page it was read from, because a paraphrase of an eligibility rule is a different statement than the rule.

Who it is for, and who may do the work

The two conditions that end most applications

Income and the contractor list are where the largest number of applications stop, and both are usually discovered late. Nationally 34 states publish an income rule and 28 of those tier the award by it, meaning income decides how much is paid rather than only whether anything is; 23 require the work to go through a contractor the programme has approved, which generally excludes work a homeowner does themselves.

Who qualifies in Arizona

Income decides the size of the award in Arizona, or whether there is one at all. Income sets the share of project cost paid, and a household above 150 percent of area median income is shut out unless it qualifies through a listed benefit programme instead.

Any household that is above the 150% area median income limits are not eligible for this program.

Who may do the work in Arizona

The work has to go through a contractor the programme has approved. a heat pump must go through the contractor path, where the programme assigns a qualified contractor; only appliances can be bought with a retail coupon

The Efficiency Arizona program offers two options for approved applicants: using a qualified contractor or going through a qualified rebate retailer. The contractor option includes rebates for heat pumps, heat pump water heaters, heat pump dryers, electric cooking appliances, insulation, air sealing, and electrical wiring or panel upgrades.

Fifteen states print a dollar figure for insulation, which puts it fifth behind the air source pump, the whole home cap, the water heater and the electrical panel. It is also the measure most likely to be required before the rest: several offices will pay for a pump only after the envelope has been dealt with, on the reasoning that a pump sized to a leaking house is a pump sized wrong. Where an office has written that rule down, the state page quotes it. “Installing installation in an attic (9337)”, The EnergySmart Academy, CC0
The other money

A Arizona rebate is not the federal tax credit

These are two separate programmes and conflating them is the commonest error on pages about this. A Arizona rebate is money off the job, applied for through Governor's Office of Resiliency under its own rules. The federal credit is money off a tax bill, claimed when filing, with no application and no approval step. Different timing, different paperwork, and qualifying for one says nothing about qualifying for the other.

Governor's Office of Resiliency does not address on its own pages whether the two can be claimed on one job. Only 10 state offices do, so the silence is normal rather than a signal either way.

How Arizona compares

13 states are taking applications, 31 are not

Arizona is in the smaller group. 13 of the fifty states are taking applications from homeowners, against 31 that have announced a programme and never opened it and 6 in some other state of suspension. An open programme can close: at least one state has reserved its funding, shut, and reopened more than once inside two years.

Across the country 155 separate dollar figures are printed and 21 states print none at all. The spread has little to do with climate: it tracks how each state chose to divide a federal allocation between a small number of large whole home awards and a large number of small per appliance ones.

The outdoor half of a heat pump is the same box in the same place as the outdoor half of an air conditioner, which is why so many homeowners cannot tell from the yard which one they already own. It matters to the paperwork: an office that pays for a swap usually wants to know what the house burns today, and Arizona has written that from September 2026 it will pay only where the equipment being replaced was already electric. “Outdoor air conditioner unit installed in residential garden space”, Shixart1985, CC BY 2.0
