"Typical amount we count" is a single-family figure we can add up; programs that state no single figure are listed as such. Pause and waitlist status could not be confirmed from a public live source for any utility. The New York Clean Heat manual (v3, effective 2026-09-01) lists full amounts for all six NY utilities and no public notice of a pause was found; Con Edison and National Grid ration money through quarterly contractor allocations (official Clean Heat meeting summaries say contractors "should only submit applications for incentives within their allocated incentive budget"), so a homeowner can be told no money is left through a given contractor. Treat "open" as "listed and not publicly paused", and call the utility or contractor before promising a rebate.

Does the federal heat pump tax credit still apply?

No. The federal energy efficient home improvement credit (25C) ended for systems placed in service after December 31, 2025, so we do not count it.
