Commercial R22 System Replacement in NJ — 80% Covered by PSE&G

April 8, 2026·5 min read·Mechanical Enterprise Team

Commercial buildings in NJ face the same R22 ban as residential properties, but the solution is different — and in many ways better. The PSE&G Direct Install Program covers up to 80% of HVAC replacement costs for qualifying commercial properties, and lighting upgrades are 100% free.

PSE&G Direct Install is designed specifically for small to medium commercial properties in NJ. If your commercial building uses R22 HVAC equipment, you qualify for up to 80% coverage on the replacement cost. This is not a rebate you apply for after the fact — PSE&G pays the contractor directly, so your out-of-pocket cost is only 20% of the total project. For a $30,000 commercial HVAC replacement, you would pay approximately $6,000. The program also includes 100% free lighting upgrades — LED retrofits for your entire building at no cost to you.

Most commercial properties served by PSE&G qualify for the Direct Install Program.

There is no minimum or maximum building size requirement, though the program is designed primarily for small to medium commercial properties.
