To join the waitlist, contractors need to submit a reservation request in Iris for their customer that includes all required project information and document attachments. The new reservation request will be kept in the 'Under Review' status until any new funding is available.
HEEHRA-trained and TECH Clean California-certified contractors will be notified if a reservation is approved. Projects installed before receiving an approved reservation are not eligible for HEEHRA rebates.
HEEHRA projects must be completed, invoiced, and have a claim with complete documentation submitted within 120 days from the date the rebate reservation was approved. While 120 days are provided to complete the installation and submit the rebate claim and required documents, we strongly recommend completing and closing out projects in less time.
