Most utility rebates are not paid upfront. Typically, the rebate is applied after installation once the contractor submits qualifying documentation to the utility. Timing varies — some rebates are paid within a few weeks, others take longer. Sapper HVAC assists with rebate paperwork.

Federal 25C Expiration and Other Arizona Programs

According to current IRS guidance, the federal 25C Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit cannot be claimed for property placed in service after December 31, 2025. That means new HVAC installations completed in 2026 or later do not qualify for this federal credit. Other federal or Arizona programs may have separate eligibility, funding, income, and rollout requirements.

Verify the current 25C rules directly with the IRS →

Availability, funding levels, and state rollout timelines vary. Some programs may not yet be active in Arizona or may have limited funding. Eligibility, income thresholds, and equipment requirements may change. Sapper HVAC will help you understand what federal or state programs may apply to your situation at the time of your estimate.
