Cool Homes Program

LIPA’s Cool Homes Program can help you save hundreds of dollars on central air conditioning costs. Recent studies show that the average central air conditioner (CAC) can use twice as much energy as necessary. That translates into wasted energy use – which translates into wasted money.

Did you know that quality installation is the most important aspect of buying new central air conditioning equipment?

A properly installed and sized energy-efficient CAC can: save you hundreds of dollars on your electric bill year after year, reduce your maintenance costs, and lengthen the life of your new equipment.

A quality installation requires units to be properly sized, equipment installed with the proper airflow, and ducts to be free from leaks. View Participating Contractors.

Before You Buy

Buying a CAC or heat pump is a big decision, and there are several things you should know before you buy. ENERGY STAR® qualified central air conditioners have a higher seasonal efficiency rating (SEER) than standard models, which makes them more efficient. Learn More

CheckMe! Tune-Up - NEW!

Cool Homes is part of a growing national trend that offers third party verification on your existing central air conditioner or heat pump system's performance. A CheckMe! Tune-Up tests the refrigerant charge and airflow of your system. Rebates are available to customers whose units pass the CheckMe! test. Learn More
