What is different about heat pump installs in Roseville?

Roseville heat-pump installation is defined by Roseville Electric's rebate: multi-stage equipment and ducts that pass Title 24 via HERS CF3R. Leaky ducts fail the rebate. That is why duct testing is not optional here the way it can be waved through on a SMUD-only sales pitch. SMUD programs do not apply. Gas is still PG&E if dual-fuel backup is in play. City quick permit through the Permit Center. West Roseville two-stories need Manual J and balance. Roseville listed the rebate as open when checked on 2026-10-06; the posted PDF application is the 2025 version, which ran first-come until funds were depleted. 916air will not promise an amount or that the ducts will pass until they are tested.

What we check on the visit:

  • Manual J that balances summer cooling load and winter heating load
  • Duct leakage and static pressure — a new heat pump cannot fix leaky attic runs
  • Electrical panel and circuit capacity for a heat-pump compressor
  • Utility rebate channel for this exact address — never assumed
  • Whether backup heat should be electric strips, dual-fuel gas, or neither

How is a heat pump install planned?

A heat pump install only pays off if it is sized to the home, matched to the ducts, and backed by adequate electrical capacity. We check all three, then walk through the rebate channel that actually applies to the address — without promising an amount. After the visit, options go in writing, and work does not start until you pick a path.

Prices are written on site, after the diagnostic. Work does not start until you pick a path.

Do I need a permit to install a heat pump in Roseville?

Yes. Installing or replacing a heat pump in Roseville is permitted work, filed with City of Roseville Development Services — Building (Permit Center) (opens in new tab). Roseville is an incorporated city in Placer County, so the permit comes from the city, not the County. HVAC and duct change-outs are a 'quick permit' through the city's Permit Center.

Who files the permit is confirmed in the written scope, and a change-out is never treated as a no-permit favor. The Sacramento HVAC permit guide maps city versus county rules across the region.

Which heat-pump rebate applies in Roseville?

Roseville Electric's own rebate, not SMUD's. SMUD programs do not apply at a Roseville address. Roseville runs its own city-owned municipal electric utility — not SMUD and not PG&E. SMUD rebate programs do not apply here.

Roseville Electric offers its own heat-pump HVAC rebate that requires a multi-stage system and ductwork passing Title 24 via HERS CF3R verification. Roseville lists it as open as of 2026-10-06; the posted PDF application is the 2025 version, which processed applications first-come until funds were depleted. Confirm the current form and amounts before relying on them. Check Roseville Electric's rebate page (opens in new tab) and our rebates and financing guide. 916air does not promise an amount, or that ducts will pass the HERS test before they are tested.

Rebate terms change. Verify current terms with the program before counting on one.

What should you decide before the change-out?

Four things: the load calculation, whether the ducts can carry the new system, electrical capacity, and the permit path. Equipment, labor, and permit responsibility go in writing before anything is ordered. The HVAC cost calculator gives a planning range, not a quote. If the ducts are the weak point, start with Duct Repair & Airflow in Roseville.
