Why an Energy Assessment is Required
To claim Wisconsin home energy rebates, you’ll need a certified energy assessment with a heat load calculation ("Manual J") to determine the right heat pump size. Our team includes this as part of every assessment, helping you qualify quickly and correctly.

Why Consider a Heat Pump?
Heat pumps move heat instead of generating it by burning gas, making them far more efficient and a smart step toward fighting climate change at home. While electric rates may not always save you money over gas, pairing a heat pump with solar power or wind energy can maximize your carbon savings.
