Note: Select energy efficiency programs for existing homes are transitioning to the utility companies
To learn more about this transition and for utility contact information please visit this page.
Utility customers who purchased appliances or HVAC equipment prior to July 1, 2021 may still submit their projects to NJCEP’s Appliance Rebate Program or the WARM/COOL Advantage Program for heating, cooling, and water heating equipment. Customers will have 180 days to submit their rebate. Appliances and HVAC equipment purchased on or after July 1, 2021 will be eligible for utility-run rebate programs.
The Appliance Recycling Program will no longer be available beginning July 1, 2021. All appliance pick-ups through NJCEP must be completed by June 30, 2021. Please contact your utility for more information about available recycling programs if you are unable to schedule a Recycling Pickup before June 30, 2021.
The WARMAdvantage Program provides rebates for high efficiency home heating systems and/or water heaters. To be eligible you must purchase, install and operate a heating system and/or water heater that meets all applicable efficiency requirements.

Combustion Safety
Replacing gas heating equipment (e.g., furnaces or boilers) without replacing a water heater that is either direct vented or power-vented is potentially dangerous. Be aware of the risks and make sure your equipment is properly tested. Learn more.
Note: The State Energy Program (SEP) funding threshold has been met and therefore we are no longer accepting and processing SEP applications for oil, propane and municipal electric customers.
WARMAdvantage Checklist
- Call Us.
Call 866-NJSMART to learn how to reduce your energy bill and receive rebates for choosing energy efficient equipment. This HVAC Program Guide can help you understand what to expect as you apply for the rebate.
- Get the Most for your Money.
Select a properly trained contractor certified by North American Technician Excellence (NATE), Building Performance Institute (BPI), National Oil Heat Research Alliance (NORA), HVAC Excellence and/or International Ground Source Heat Pump Association (IGSHPA). It's not just the quality of the equipment installed, it's also the quality of the installation. It takes good training and advanced technology to properly install today's high efficiency equipment.
- Don't Heat the Outdoors.
Before putting in a new boiler, furnace, or water heater, schedule a Home Performance assessment to find out where energy is being wasted. If your home does not have enough insulation, or leaks too much air, even the most efficient unit will waste energy.
Note: HVAC equipment installed in homes constructed under NJ's Residential New Construction Program is not eligible to receive an incentive from the WARMAdvantage Program.
