Join TECH Clean California

Become a TECH Clean California participant to get access to our $1,500 Emergency Water Heater Loaner Incentive, which makes permanent HPWHs a viable option during emergency situations.

Note: There is no cost to participate in TECH Clean California. The program is open to B general building, C-36 plumbing, and C-20 HVAC contractors. 

TIP: Why heat pump water heaters?

As more households move toward environmentally-friendly options and the Bay Area passes new regulations to support California’s clean energy goals, households will need to start replacing gas appliances with electric when their old equipment breaks down. Learn more about heat pump water heaters.
