The HEEHRA is not related to the Residential Energy Credit. You could claim both for an installation next year. The HEEHRA is a point of sale rebate program and not a tax credit. It is for low and medium income households only (below 80% or below 150% of Area Median income). It is a very substantial rebate that covers up to 100% of the cost (upto $8000) for low income households and 50% of the costs for a medium income. It is not in place currently as the DOE takes its time figuring out the procedures but expected to be in place by mid 2024.

This is the HEEHRA rebate program. Was passed as part of IRA but the DOE taking its own time in setting guidelines. Expected to be available in mid 2024 and will be a point of sale rebate so you won't have to wait till tax time. https://www.rewiringamerica.org/p...rebate-act

These are the MrCool DIY units, so they are installable without a HVAC contractor to vacuum the lines, etc. The lines come pre-charged with coolant

Costco lifetime return warranty and potential tax credit for the DIY mini splitters. Any other variables here?

Some states require installation by a licensed HVAC tech. Worthwhile to look into.

Great deal . You can replace one of these about 3x for what HVAC pro install will charge you these days.

Check with your electrical company as they may have ancillary rebates for heat pumps. Dakota Electric in MN does which helps offset the higher cost for diy setups. I called them last year and they dont require a licensed pro install either. Just needs to be energy star rated.

No. It needs to be installed by a certified tech and i believe you need to do a manual j for ducted systems as an additional step to qualify.
Yes, it clearly is eligible:

This or the Pioneer at HD? Disregard the 24k - wondering which is more reliable.

Can the 12K be installed to an outdoor plug in outlet if it is on a dedicated circuit?

18k has been running solid for the past year.
Only complaint is the battery powered thermostat EATS through batteries. I just use the remote control, set it and forget it.
