Why Union Residents Are Rushing to Upgrade in 2025
If you're a Union Township homeowner still running that 15-year-old furnace or struggling with sky-high cooling bills, 2025 might be the best year in history to upgrade your HVAC system.

Common Mistakes That Cost Union Residents Money
Avoid These Costly Errors
❌ Installing First, Applying Later
Many programs require pre-approval. Installing equipment before energy audit can disqualify you from thousands in rebates.
❌ Using Non-Certified Contractors
PSE&G and NJ Clean Energy require approved contractors. Handymen or uncertified installers void rebate eligibility.
❌ Choosing Wrong Equipment
Not all "high-efficiency" equipment qualifies. Specific SEER, AFUE, and HSPF ratings required. Small differences mean missing rebates.
❌ Missing Application Deadlines
Most programs require submission within 90 days of installation. Late applications are automatically denied.
❌ Not Stacking Programs
Using only one rebate program instead of combining federal, state, and utility incentives leaves money on the table.
Special Programs for Union Businesses
Commercial Rebates for Morris Avenue & Route 22 Businesses
- PSE&G Direct Install: Up to competitive pricing in upgrades with 70% covered by PSE&G for qualifying small businesses

Act Fast: Why Timing Matters in 2025
These generous rebate programs won't last forever. Federal funding is allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. PSE&G programs have annual budgets that often run out by October. Early 2025 applicants have the best chance of securing maximum rebates before funding caps are reached.
Additionally, with Route 22 construction and rising energy costs, Union residents are upgrading at record rates. Equipment shortages and installation backlogs are already developing. Acting now ensures you get the system you want with full rebate benefits.
