About & disclosures

HPWH Rebate Desk is a thin set of WA/OR heat pump water heater rebate checklists by utility. Plain language. Official program links. Verify every dollar amount.

What this site is

Homeowner-oriented checklists for:

Amounts and rules are re-checked against live utility pages. Each public page shows a Last checked banner. Re-verify before you buy or apply.

Affiliate disclosure (FTC)

HPWH Rebate Desk may earn a commission if you buy through links on this site. That does not change the price you pay. Product links on the models page are placeholders (href="#" labeled “affiliate link TBD”) until an Amazon Associates (or similar) account is approved and filled in. We do not invent ASINs, prices, or commission rates. The paperwork “folder pack” is described as a future paid PDF — no fake buy link.

Not affiliated with utilities or ENERGY STAR

This site is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Puget Sound Energy, Seattle City Light, Snohomish County PUD, Tacoma Public Utilities / Tacoma Power, Energy Trust of Oregon, PGE, Pacific Power, NEEA, BPA, ENERGY STAR, the U.S. EPA/DOE, or the IRS. Always follow the live program page and licensed professionals they require.

Hire licensed — no DIY electrical how-tos

These pages are rebate checklists, not plumbing or electrical instructions. Hire a licensed plumber and/or electrician when install, permits, or code require it. We do not publish amp/wire sizing, gas-line work, or panel upgrade how-tos.

Verify dollar amounts on the utility site

Every rebate figure on this workshop site is a snapshot. Treat the official utility URL as source of truth. Funding can end; tiers and deadlines drift weekly.

Federal tax credit caveat

We do not advertise the federal §25C Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit as live for HPWHs placed in service in 2026. Confirm current tax law with the IRS or a qualified tax professional. State HEAR/HOMES-style rebates (if any) are separate — check your state energy office.

Independent site

HPWH Rebate Desk is a separate project. It is not Haven, HavenRent, litehousestaging, Charger Checklist, SepticCheck WA, or any related brand. Do not treat this site as part of those properties.

Contact / corrections

If a rebate amount, QPL, or deadline drifts, treat the official utility URL as source of truth. Update the checklist and the “Last checked” date before relying on this workshop copy.
