HVAC Rebates & Incentives in Central Indiana
Federal tax credits, utility rebates, and manufacturer promotions can take thousands off a new system. LCS Heating and Cooling helps Indianapolis homeowners find and claim every dollar they qualify for.
Four ways to lower the cost of comfort
Federal Tax Credits — Ended After 2025
The federal Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (25C) ended: it is not allowed for equipment placed in service after December 31, 2025. Homeowners who completed qualifying installs in 2025 or earlier may still claim it on the applicable tax year's return.
- Section 25C was terminated by 2025 federal legislation — no credit for property placed in service after Dec 31, 2025 (IRS).
- Installed qualifying equipment on or before Dec 31, 2025? Talk to your tax professional about claiming it for that tax year.
- The 30% Residential Clean Energy Credit (25D, including geothermal) likewise ended for expenditures after Dec 31, 2025.
- The good news: Indiana utility and manufacturer programs below are still active — that is where 2026 savings live.
IRS — Public Law 119-21 (2025) accelerated 25C/25D termination; verified July 2026. Not tax advice.

Rebates & Incentives FAQs
What heat pump rebates are available in Indianapolis?+
In 2026, Indianapolis heat pump savings come from utility programs — AES Indiana (LCS is a verified Trade Ally) or Duke Energy Smart Saver on the electric side, CenterPoint (or Citizens Energy Westfield for Westfield homes) on gas — plus current Daikin manufacturer promotions. The federal 25C tax credit ended for equipment placed in service after December 31, 2025. Exact amounts depend on the equipment and your eligibility — we'll identify what you qualify for before you buy.
Does the federal tax credit still cover a new AC or furnace?+
No — the federal Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (25C) is not allowed for equipment placed in service after December 31, 2025, per the IRS. If your qualifying system was installed in 2025 or earlier, ask your tax professional about claiming it for that year. For 2026 installs, utility and manufacturer programs are the active savings paths.
How do I qualify for HVAC rebates and incentives in Indiana?+
Qualification depends on the equipment's efficiency rating, your utility (AES Indiana, CenterPoint, or Duke Smart Saver territory), and (for some programs) income or pre-approval. The simplest path is a free LCS savings assessment — we match qualifying equipment to the federal, utility, and manufacturer programs you're eligible for and handle the paperwork.
Can LCS help me claim rebates and incentives?+
Yes. As a factory-authorized Daikin Comfort Pro (Elite Certified) and AES Indiana Utility Trade Ally, we recommend qualifying equipment, identify the federal, utility, and manufacturer incentives that apply, and guide you through any required paperwork or pre-approval.
This is general information, not tax or legal advice. Incentive programs, amounts, and eligibility change over time. Confirm current details with the program administrator or a qualified tax professional. LCS Heating and Cooling helps identify and apply qualifying incentives but does not guarantee any specific rebate or credit.
