A more affordable path to heating and cooling

What Is Energize Shoreline?

Energize Shoreline is a City of Shoreline program that provides free heat pump education and exclusive savings for eligible local homeowners. Heat pumps provide heating and air conditioning in one efficient system, making them especially useful for Shoreline homes that need better summer cooling and dependable winter comfort.

To qualify for the program’s exclusive discounts, homeowners must attend an Energize Shoreline workshop, meet the applicable eligibility requirements, select equipment from the City’s qualified product list, and work with a qualified installer. Home Comfort Alliance can complete the free site assessment, recommend an eligible system, prepare the quote, and apply an approved discount code while funding remains available.

Start with the workshop. The workshop is required before you can request a $2,500 or $6,000 discount code or apply for the Low-Income Track.

Your HCA site assessment

What Home Comfort Alliance Will Review

Home and Comfort Needs

We review the home’s size, layout, insulation, current heating system, comfort concerns, and whether ducted, ductless, or hybrid options may fit.

Equipment and Placement

We recommend qualifying equipment, discuss indoor and outdoor unit locations, and account for airflow, access, noise, drainage, and maintenance clearances.

Electrical and Project Scope

We evaluate electrical readiness, permitting needs, installation details, and related work that may affect the quote or schedule.

No one-size-fits-all quote: The City estimates heat pump systems may range from approximately $5,000 for one mini-split to $30,000 for a large whole-home system. Your assessment determines the equipment and project scope appropriate for your home.

One system, year-round comfort

Why Shoreline Homeowners Are Considering Heat Pumps

Heating and Cooling

A heat pump can warm your home in winter and provide air conditioning during increasingly warm Shoreline summers.

High Efficiency

Heat pumps move heat rather than creating it through combustion or electric resistance, helping them operate efficiently.

Flexible System Options

Ducted, ductless, and hybrid configurations can support different home layouts, existing systems, and comfort goals.

Cleaner Home Heating

Switching primary heating to an electric heat pump can reduce direct fossil-fuel use in the home.

Common questions

Energize Shoreline Heat Pump FAQ

Who is eligible for an Energize Shoreline heat pump discount?

For the Standard Track, you must own a single-family home or townhouse in Shoreline, primarily heat with a working natural gas, oil, or electric-resistance system, attend a 2025 or 2026 Energize Shoreline workshop, choose qualifying equipment, and use a qualified installer. The Moderate-Income and Low-Income tracks have additional income or utility-assistance requirements.

Do I have to attend an Energize Shoreline workshop?

Yes. Workshop attendance is required before you can request the $2,500 or $6,000 discount code or apply for the cost-covered Low-Income Track. The next listed workshop is Tuesday, August 18, 2026, from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m., with in-person and Zoom options.

Do I have to remove my existing furnace or fossil-fuel heating system?

For the Standard and Moderate-Income tracks, removing an existing gas, oil, propane, or wood system is recommended but not required; it may remain as backup while the heat pump becomes the primary heating and cooling system. Homeowners selected for the cost-covered Low-Income Track must remove or fully disconnect an existing fossil-fuel heating system.

Do heat pumps work during Pacific Northwest winters?

Yes. Modern heat pumps are designed to provide efficient heating in cold weather and cooling during warmer months. Correct system selection, sizing, placement, and installation are important for dependable performance in a Shoreline home.

How much does a heat pump cost before discounts?

The City of Shoreline notes that heat pump projects can range from about $5,000 for a single mini-split to about $30,000 for a larger whole-home system. Actual cost depends on the system type, home layout, electrical readiness, ductwork, equipment, permits, and installation scope.

Can the Energize Shoreline discount be combined with other incentives?

Other utility incentives or financing may be available, but eligibility and stacking rules depend on the equipment, utility, program terms, timing, and available funding. Home Comfort Alliance can review currently available options during the assessment, but the applicable program administrator makes final eligibility decisions.

What happens during the free site assessment?

Home Comfort Alliance evaluates the home, current heating system, comfort goals, possible ducted or ductless options, equipment placement, electrical readiness, and the project scope. We then recommend qualifying equipment and prepare a quote that reflects the applicable Energize Shoreline discount when program requirements are met and funding remains available.

Why choose Home Comfort Alliance for Energize Shoreline?

Home Comfort Alliance is participating as a qualified Energize Shoreline installer. Our team can complete the free site assessment, recommend qualifying equipment, prepare the project quote, apply an eligible discount code, and help coordinate available rebate documentation and financing resources.

Is the free heat pump guaranteed if I meet the low-income requirements?

No. Eligible residents may apply for the Low-Income Track, but the City states that applications will be reviewed, scored, and ranked after the August 25 deadline and that not every applicant may receive a cost-covered heat pump. Terms, selection criteria, and funding availability apply.
