As of November 12, 2024, TECH and 3CE SF HVAC have updated project eligibility requirements and application processes to align with HEEHRA. These programs have also updated customer connectivity requirements. Please see the new requirements below:

1. Demand Response (DR) program enrollment will be required (if available) for TECH and 3CE, and encouraged (but not required) for HEEHRA.

2. New gas furnaces and hybrid systems cannot be installed as part of the heat pump project, though existing furnaces can remain in for emergency heat for TECH and HEEHRA.

3. Pre-approved reservations will be required to ensure funding for all SF HP HVAC projects.

4. Additional pre- and post-install testing and reporting will be required for HEEHRA.

5. Signed TECH Customer Terms and Conditions and itemized statements of work will be required for all SF HP HVAC projects.
   

We highly recommend existing HP HVAC contractors watch the new training videos on our YouTube channel as well as review the Contractor Knowledgebase.
