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.

*Buy on or Before December 31, 2024*

Did they sell it to you for the sales price then deducted the $1000 discount after?

Yes. I told them I needed a special order and showed them the rebate bar code and they applied it for me.

Rebate also applies for ConEd customers in Westchester. I'm not sure if there are other ConEd service areas in NY other than the city or Westchester, but if there are, it would probably work there too.

Maybe Orange & Rockland county since they are also serviced by ConEd.

If your electric power is out, the least of your worries should be hot water... also, living in NYC, it's rare for your electric to cut off. Literally has never happened the past decade.

This comment made me realize Hurricane Sandy was over a decade ago 😂

Would like to chime in as someone who has a lot of experience with plumbing applications and appliance repair.

Yes, these are loud. They have compressors that kick on frequently when hot water is being used or hot water supply needs to be refilled.

The need 80sqft of space to work properly (~10'x8'). You can not put them in a small closet unless you duct them to the outside.

They will make whatever room you put them in cold.

Econet app is garbage. I haven't been able to get two separate accounts tied to a single unit but they may have fixed that.

Rheems warranty doesn't cover labor and sensors on them frequently go bad (Google bad evap sensor code A005). If a sensor goes bad you will only be able to use full electric mode.

Sensors are plug and play and Rheem will send you new ones but depending on how yours is wired/plumbed it could be difficult to access inside the unit.

Lastly, you will most likely need a pump for the condensate line if you don't have a drain accessible

That being said, they are good tech but not for everyone

Like I said I'll keep my gas Freedom 🇺🇸 water heater!

I remember that. I also remember my GAS furnace, oven and hot water heater all not working because the electric was out. The only reason the stove worked was because the igniters were broken so I had to use a lighter to light it anyway…

This is a phenomenal deal for those who can get it. I have the 65 gallon model and it works great. Sure wish I had gotten this kind of incentive.

In addition to the efficiency of a heat pump, you can use the WiFi to further savings by adjusting or turning off the water heater when you don't need hot water (vacation, work, etc.).

Regarding federal taxes, the 30% credit applies to both the water heater as well as the installation cost.

This thing doubles as a/c for my garage. It's beautiful. 😄

Totally agree. My water heater is in the garage. In the past, my garage was stifling hot in the summer months. With the cool dry air expelled from the heat pump water heater, it's a joy to work in now. Many people overlook these side benefits. Dehumidification is a big plus.
For prospective buyers with a conventional placement of the water heater in the basement, this will help remove some of the dampness.

Gas water heaters nowadays keep the pilot light going by using the gas pressure. No longer need an electric source. So in an electrical outage, you'd still have hot water. That won't solve the HVAC problem but at least you could warm up a bit with a hot shower.
