Energy Saver North Carolina. Start with this one.

Tru72 features the Energy Saver North Carolina program, which may provide substantial rebates for qualifying energy-efficient upgrades through the federal HOMES & HEAR initiatives.

Depending on household eligibility and the improvements being made, homeowners may qualify for rebates including up to $8,000 toward qualifying heat pump systems, electrical panel upgrade incentives, wiring and electrical improvement rebates, insulation and air sealing assistance, and heat pump water heater incentives.

What it means: These programs are designed to help homeowners lower energy use, improve comfort, and make high-efficiency upgrades more affordable. You can begin the qualification process directly through Energy Saver North Carolina before scheduling installation with Tru72.

Every program, in one table.

In addition to statewide rebate programs, many homeowners may also qualify for additional utility, manufacturer, and federal savings opportunities.

Whether you qualify depends on your household and the equipment. We'll check it on the visit, before you commit to anything.

Combine a rebate with financing.

Many homeowners combine rebates with financing to reduce upfront costs while upgrading to a more comfortable, efficient system. Tru72 offers financing options designed to help make larger home comfort investments more manageable.

Efficiency is more than equipment selection.

Our approach is built around proper diagnostics, system performance and home comfort testing. That helps homeowners avoid oversized systems, airflow issues, and energy waste that can quietly drive up utility bills over time.

  1. We identify qualifying systems.

    Which equipment actually meets the efficiency thresholds each program requires, rather than which one is easiest to sell.

    What it means: A rebate you don't qualify for isn't a discount.

  2. We size to the house, not the sale.

    A Manual J load calculation against your actual home — square footage, ceiling heights, windows, insulation — on every replacement quote.

    We don't guess. We test.

    What it means: An oversized system wears out in half the time, and it undoes the efficiency you just paid for.

  3. We review the options with you.

    Potential rebate opportunities, financing options, and a solution built to fit your home and your budget.

    What it means: That philosophy helps ensure your system performs the way it should long after installation day.

Savings, plain answers.

The questions homeowners ask most often about rebates and incentives.

How do I know what I qualify for?

Whether you qualify depends on your household and the equipment. You can begin the qualification process directly through Energy Saver North Carolina before scheduling installation with Tru72, and we'll check the rest on the visit, before you commit to anything.

How much is the Energy Saver North Carolina rebate?

Up to $8,000 toward qualifying heat pump systems, depending on household eligibility and the improvements being made. The program may also cover electrical panel upgrades, wiring and electrical improvements, insulation and air sealing, and heat pump water heaters.

Can I use a rebate and a tax credit?

Homeowners installing qualifying high-efficiency equipment may also qualify for federal energy-efficiency tax credits administered by the IRS, in addition to state and utility programs. Consult your tax professional about how they interact in your situation.

Do I have to pick between a rebate and financing?

No. Many homeowners combine rebates with financing to reduce upfront costs while upgrading to a more comfortable, efficient system. See financing options.

My utility is a cooperative, not Duke. Is there anything for me?

Some North Carolina electric cooperatives and local utility providers offer additional rebates or efficiency incentives beyond statewide programs. Check with your local cooperative for what's available in your service area.

Let's walk through what's possible.

We'll review your home, your existing system, and the savings programs that may apply — identify qualifying systems, explain potential rebate opportunities, review financing options, and build a solution that fits your home and budget.
