SRP Rebates for HVAC in Arizona — How to Save Money

Sapper HVACJune 21, 2026

SRP customers in Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, and Tempe AZ can get rebates on qualifying HVAC systems and smart thermostats. Sapper HVAC explains how to take advantage.

If you're a Salt River Project (SRP) electric customer in Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, Tempe, or the surrounding SRP service territory, you may qualify for significant rebates when you install a qualifying high-efficiency HVAC system, heat pump, or smart thermostat.

Who Is an SRP Customer?

SRP customers are typically located in Mesa (large portions), Chandler (eastern portions), Gilbert, Tempe (portions), Scottsdale (portions), Queen Creek and San Tan Valley, Apache Junction, and parts of Fountain Hills. Check your electric bill if unsure.

SRP Energy Efficiency Rebate Programs for HVAC

Note: SRP rebate amounts and program availability change periodically. Verify exact amounts at srpnet.com or ask Sapper HVAC at time of installation.

Central Air Conditioning Rebates

  • Systems at 16 SEER2 and above qualify for rebates in most program periods
  • Higher-efficiency tiers (18 SEER2+) often qualify for larger rebate amounts
  • Variable-speed systems frequently qualify for the highest available rebate

Heat Pump Rebates

SRP provides rebates on qualifying heat pump systems, including systems that replace electric resistance heating with more efficient heat pump technology.

Smart Thermostat Rebates and Connected Programs

SRP offers rebates on qualifying smart thermostats. SRP's EZ-3 rate plan and demand management programs reward customers who shift energy use away from peak hours — compatible smart thermostats can automate this and earn bill credits.

SRP EZ-3 Peak Pricing Program

SRP's EZ-3 time-of-use rate plan charges significantly lower rates outside of peak hours (typically 3–6 PM in summer). Homeowners who pre-cool before peak hours and allow temperatures to rise slightly during peak — easily automated with a smart thermostat — can significantly reduce their summer electric bill.

How to Claim SRP HVAC Rebates

  1. Confirm SRP service territory
  2. Choose qualifying equipment: Sapper HVAC helps you select systems that meet SRP rebate thresholds
  3. Complete installation with a licensed contractor
  4. Gather documentation: Invoice, model and serial numbers, permit documentation
  5. Submit your rebate at srpnet.com, typically within 90 days of installation
