furnaces Rebates and Incentives

High efficient furnaces are more expensive than other less efficient models but their higher initial investment can be largely offset by incentives and rebates. They can shorten the payback period and make an otherwise uncompetitive furnace into a much more enticing choice.

Besides state level rebates, pay also attention to local incentives. They may exceed the value of federal and state incentives. For an illustration of it see, for instance, the Energy Trust of Oregon.
