A professionally performed home energy audit in Tucson is the first step to identifying how your home uses — and loses — energy. We use blower door testing, infrared imaging, and duct diagnostics to detect air leaks, insulation gaps, and inefficient equipment. Our audits help prioritize improvements that make a real difference.
Leaky ducts are one of the biggest sources of energy loss in Arizona homes. Studies show that up to 30% of conditioned air can escape through unsealed or poorly connected ductwork. That’s money literally leaking out of your ceiling or attic.
Our expert duct sealing in Tucson targets these losses using advanced mastic sealing, pressure testing, and airflow balancing. TEP rebates may apply when duct sealing is part of your efficiency upgrade plan.
Tucson Electric Power offers several rebate programs that help homeowners upgrade to more efficient cooling systems:
We’ll help you navigate the rebate paperwork and ensure all installations meet program standards.

In addition to TEP rebates, many energy-efficient HVAC improvements also qualify for the federal Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (25C). This program, part of the Inflation Reduction Act, provides up to $2,000 in tax credits for qualified HVAC upgrades, including heat pumps and high-efficiency air conditioners.You may also qualify for other Efficiency Arizona rebates.
We guide you through layering TEP rebates with federal incentives for maximum savings.
We stand behind the performance of our installations with our exclusive Utility Bill Guarantee Program. When you upgrade your HVAC system through our performance path, we’ll provide a written guarantee on your utility bills. If your energy costs don’t meet the targeted efficiency benchmarks, we’ll make it right. It’s another way we ensure that our customers receive real-world, measurable results from their investment.
Choosing a high-efficiency HVAC system isn’t just about upfront rebates — it’s about long-term performance. Our systems are professionally sized using Manual J load calculations and installed with proper airflow, duct sealing, and refrigerant charge. These details matter. A poorly installed system, even a high-end one, can waste energy and fall short on comfort.
We install systems from leading manufacturers with high SEER2 ratings, and we always pair them with building envelope improvements to ensure the investment pays off.
Whether you want to stop air leaks, replace an aging system, or take advantage of TEP rebates, Advantage Home Performance is your local partner for energy-efficient HVAC in Tucson.
