NuWatt installs ducted, ductless, and cold-climate heat pumps across New Jersey. We handle the NJ Whole Home program, utility rebates (PSE&G, JCP&L, ACE, RECO), and give you honest advice about whether a heat pump makes financial sense for your home.
Heat pumps provide heating, cooling, and dehumidification in one system.
Heat pumps replace both your furnace and air conditioner. One system, one maintenance schedule, year-round comfort.
Heat pumps are 2-3x more efficient than gas furnaces. NJ homeowners switching from gas typically save $300-$800/year, depending on gas prices and electric rates.
NJ is a gas-dominant market with relatively low gas prices. We will tell you honestly if the savings justify the switch — some homes see narrow margins.
Modern cold-climate heat pumps operate efficiently down to -13F. NJ winters rarely go below 10F, making heat pumps highly effective year-round.
Energy-efficient homes sell faster and for more. A heat pump system modernizes your HVAC and reduces your carbon footprint.
Our certified technicians handle load calculations, equipment selection, ductwork assessment, and installation. Every job includes a workmanship guarantee.
Each NJ utility offers different rebate amounts. These stack with the NJ Whole Home program (up to $7,500). The federal 25C credit expired December 31, 2025.
Instant rebate applied at point of sale. Covers qualifying air-source heat pumps.
North & Central NJTiered rebate based on system efficiency. $500 for standard, $1,000 for cold-climate rated.
Northwest & Shore NJOne of the highest utility rebates in NJ. Available for qualifying ducted and ductless installations.
South JerseyHighest utility heat pump rebate in NJ. Limited RECO service territory in Bergen County.
Bergen CountyNew Jersey is a gas-dominant market with relatively low gas prices. Switching from gas to a heat pump typically saves $300-$800/year — less than in states with higher gas costs. The financial case is strongest when you also need AC replacement, when your furnace is 15+ years old, or when you pair a heat pump with solar panels. We will give you an honest savings estimate during your free consultation.

Prices before NJ Whole Home ($7,500 max) and utility rebates. Federal 25C credit is $0 in 2026.
Heat pump installation in New Jersey costs $4,500-$25,000 depending on the type and size. A single-zone ductless mini-split runs $4,500-$7,000. A whole-home ducted system costs $12,000-$20,000. Cold-climate models that serve as primary heating run $15,000-$25,000. These are 2026 prices before utility rebates.
New Jersey offers the NJ Whole Home program (up to $7,500) plus utility-specific rebates: PSE&G $900 instant, JCP&L $500-$1,000, ACE $1,300, and RECO $1,400. The federal Section 25C energy efficiency credit expired December 31, 2025 — there is no federal heat pump credit in 2026.
No. The Section 25C energy efficiency tax credit expired December 31, 2025. There is no federal credit for heat pump purchases in 2026. NJ state and utility rebates (NJ Whole Home + utility-specific) are the primary incentives available.
It depends on your situation. NJ has relatively low natural gas prices, so the savings from switching from gas to a heat pump can be narrow ($300-$800/year). Heat pumps make the strongest financial case when replacing an old furnace, when paired with solar panels, or when you also need AC replacement. We will give you an honest assessment.
The NJ Whole Home program provides up to $7,500 for qualifying whole-home electrification projects, including heat pump installations. The rebate is graduated: $2,000 base plus $200 per percentage point of Total Energy Score improvement. A BPI-certified installer (like NuWatt) is required.
Yes. Modern cold-climate heat pumps operate efficiently down to -13F. New Jersey winters rarely drop below 10F, and the state is in climate zones 4-5. Cold-climate models maintain 100% heating capacity at 5F and work well as primary heating throughout NJ.
If you have existing ductwork in good condition, a ducted heat pump is typically more cost-effective for whole-home comfort. Ductless mini-splits are ideal if you lack ductwork, want zone control, or are supplementing an existing system. Many NJ homes use a hybrid approach.
Yes. NuWatt installs heat pumps across all of New Jersey including PSE&G, JCP&L, ACE, and RECO utility territories. We handle the rebate paperwork for whichever utility serves your home.
