Heating and cooling can account for up to one-third of the energy consumption in a typical building. Upgrading to energy-efficient HVAC equipment reduces energy use, cuts energy costs and improves indoor air quality for residents.
Energy Trust offers cash incentives to make energy-efficient HVAC equipment upgrades more affordable. With better performing equipment, you and your tenants will enjoy immediate savings.
Be sure to review the specifications and requirements in the Oregon Multifamily Heating, Ventilation and Cooling Incentive Application before purchasing equipment.
