Rebates over $2,500 require pre-approval by EWEB before installation. Prior to granting approval, we must receive your rebate application. For more information, please email us at ems.answers@eweb.org or call 541-685-7088.
We promote energy efficiency by offering you a streamlined and cost-effective way to replace your business's existing water heater with the installation of an energy-efficient heat pump water heater.
We require all measure rebate items to be installed in a facility serviced by an EWEB general service meter.

Commercial Unitary Heat Pump Water Heater
Commercial heat pump water heaters save energy by using ambient heat to raise the temperature of water, rather than relying solely on electric-resistance heat as with a conventional electric storage water heater. Commercial heat pump water heaters are available in larger storage capacities than “Consumer” heat pump water heaters.
Apply now. You can print a paper application here. You can email the following required documents to ems.answers@eweb.org:
- Copy of itemized invoice that includes manufacturer and model number.
This measure applies to units classified by federal regulations as unitary, commercial water heaters.
Post-condition: The installed heat pump water heater must:
- Be ENERGY STAR certified as per requirements in the Commercial Water Heaters Version 2.0 or later.
- Have an integrated tank; and
- Be installed indoors in a conditioned or buffered space.
This measure is available for either retrofit or new construction.
