Packaged Terminal Heat Pumps

Get better equipment for less than you’d pay for standard PTAC units with incentives from Chelan PUD—we’ll pay up to 100% for your new, installed PTHPs, packaged terminal heat pumps.

Benefits

Up to 100% paid by Chelan PUD

Year-round comfort

Lower heating and cooling costs

Incentives

Chelan PUD offers two PTHP incentives depending on where the unit will be installed: Residential Care Facility and Lodging.

$1,200 per unit

Residential Care Facility

The PTHP unit will be installed in a nursing home, retirement home, or assisted living facility

$850 per unit

Lodging

The PTHP until will be installed in a hotel, motel, bed and breakfast, boarding or rooming house, apartment hotel, dormitory, or shelter

These PUD incentives often pay for your full project costs, with nothing out of pocket to you. Just in case, any upgrades beyond PUD incentives qualify for low-rate EnergySmart financing.
