How it works
Two ways rebates reach you
TECH Clean California takes the incentive off your invoice up front. Utility and state rebates are paid to you after the job, and we give you everything you need to apply.
TECH Clean California
Instant discount on your invoice
- Free home check. We confirm your ZIP, home and income tier.
- We reserve your incentive with TECH. Work can't start until it's approved.
- Your invoice shows the incentive as a discount. You pay only the balance.
- We install, permit and pass inspection. TECH pays us the incentive afterward.
LADWP, SCE, SoCalGas, city utilities & seismic
You apply after the job, we help
- You approve the project at the full contract price.
- We pull permits and do the work, then pass inspection.
- You get an application kit from us: instructions, invoice, model numbers, permit and photos.
- You submit and the program pays you. Lawn and seismic programs need pre-approval first; we help with that too.

Questions
Rebate questions
Do I really pay nothing?
Usually you pay part. Income-qualified homes in the San Fernando Valley priority ZIP codes have the best chance of near-zero cost. We give you the exact number before you sign.
Is the rebate a discount or a check?
TECH Clean California incentives are taken off your invoice, and TECH pays us later. LADWP, SCE, SoCalGas and city utility rebates are paid to you after the job, with a ready-to-submit application kit from us.
Can I combine rebates?
Often yes. Some programs limit stacking on the same equipment, and we check that for each project.
What if the money runs out?
For TECH projects, once your reservation is approved, that amount is held for your project. If funding closes before approval, we tell you right away.
Do renters qualify?
Some programs accept renters with the owner's written permission. Others are owner-only. We confirm before scheduling.
