I bought 2 already so I know it works.
NYC's utility is incentivizing switching from gas to electric heat pump water heaters by giving a $1000 instant rebate when purchasing IN-STORE as a special order for the coupon to be applied.

Performance Platinum 65 Gal. 10-Year $1639.99 (It went as low as $1539.99).

ProTerra 65 Gal. 10-Year Hybrid High Efficiency Smart Tank Electric Water Heater with Leak Detection & Auto Shutoff
https://www.homedepot.com/p/Rheem.../312741454


Also works on the Proterra (leak detection & auto shutoff version) and the other sizes but best when these are having a sale.
Shipped to store is free, delivery to your house is $79 extra + tax.


Program and participating stores:

$1000 instant rebate (must be a ConEd customers):
https://coned.instant-rebates.com/

Performance platinum 65 gallons
$1639.99 - $1000 = $639.99 + ny tax = $696.79 Shipped to store
Proterra 65 gallons
$1899.99 - $1000 = 899.99 + NY tax = $979.86 shipped to store

You also get 30% from the federal tax credit

It also should work on the AO smith version for Lowe's but I didn't try that.

No hot water if electric power is out no thanks I like my hot freedom showers 🇺🇸.

Works great with a generator or battery backup because it pulls such small amount of power

Which Home Depot in NYC did you go to purchase the water heater? The one I went to only let me use the coupon on the retail price. Let me know which store and if you know who to look for to place the order. Thanks.

I'm in Missouri, not NY. Home Depot ran a special where the 65 gallon model was slightly more than the 50 gallon. With 65, it's more likely to run in heat pump mode, providing the most efficient method.

Quote from smike33 :
The $1600 rebate and 30% write off of project costs is available for BGE in Maryland too. But the 66 gal one I would need is $2600 and I'd need a 240 volt dedicated circuit ran to its location to run to it. Guess I'm sticking with a gas one. Reviews on the AO smiths heat pump ones at Lowes are atrocious!

Is this an instant rebate? Or mail in offer?

These are great. If you have an existing water heater in good shape, you can put this in front of it as a first stage and run it in heat pump only mode set a little hotter than the existing tank. Then your existing tank acts like a buffer and adds extra heating capacity only when you need it. https://www.greenbuildingadvisor....cid=265723

It has a 4500w element for fast heating when needed and needs a 30 amp 240 breaker, but believe it also has a setting to turn that heating element off and use heat pump only. Not sure on its exact energy use as heat pump only, but much lower. There are also 110v heat pump only versions, so probably well under 2 kw max draw for heat pump only. They estimate average 848 kWh annual energy use, so divide that by 365 to get an idea of how little energy would be needed per day to keep the heater going with average use.

I had a 50 gallon one and these are awesome. Our house burned down and my wife said she wants a propane heater when we rebuild our house so I'm going to skip this. We payed 1400 for the one we had. Great deal.

There is no control module on those - just a pilot light and a termocouple switch that turns the gas valve on and off if temp drops below a limit.

Well, the thermocouple and gas valve are the "control module", they simply don't require an electricity source as they are self-contained.

Heat flux generates voltage on the thermocouple, which is then used to regulate the gas valve. If the pilot goes out, the pilot gas valve closes. If the water gets too cold relative to the room temp, the main valve opens up. Once it's up to temp, the main gas valve closes.

I have a pilotless powervent model, so it requires an electrical outlet for the control board running the vent fan, ignition circuit, and gas valve.

For myself, I went to the one at Woodhaven. Go to the Pro services or customer service desk and ask that you want to make a special order and have an instant rebate code.

Just an FYI. Bought one last September when rebate first came out. Paid 79 dollar to ship to house, but hd would only drop off to the driveway. Would not bring it down to basement or bring into the house.

You probably forgot to wave a $20 when you asked the guy to: "Can you help me get the WH down to the basement."
