Nov 10, 2022 | Energy Efficiency
Winter is near, and colder weather often means more energy use and higher bills. We want to help, and we’re happy to offer rebates for most of the ENERGY STAR® Home Upgrade series of improvements. These are designed to maximize your energy and cost savings with energy-efficient appliances and products.
Insulation
We’re offering rebates of up to $200 for air sealing and up to $500 for attic insulation; and doing multiple projects like these will put you on the path to a potential $350 retrofit bonus. Plus, you could qualify for tax credits.
If your home is leaking air, you may be leaking money on your energy bill. Ensuring your attic is well-sealed and properly insulated is one of the most important things you can do to reduce air leaks, save on your electricity bill, and improve comfort.
Low insulation levels and air leaks make your heating and cooling systems work harder and use more energy. If the insulation is below the level of the floor joists in your attic, you probably need to add more.
Tackle air sealing and attic insulation projects now to reduce your energy costs before it gets colder. Learn more about our insulation rebates here.

Smart Thermostats
We’re offering a $100 rebate if you install a smart thermostat. Plus, you could qualify for tax credits.
Half of an average American household’s energy bill goes toward heating and cooling—more than $900 a year. Let a smart thermostat help you control your home’s temperature—you could save money and stay comfortable! Smart thermostats ensure your home is at the right temperature when you’re there and conserving energy when you’re not.
The smart thermostat is an important part of an ENERGY STAR Home Upgrade because it controls equipment that uses significant energy for heating and cooling.

Water Heaters
We’re offering a $400 rebate if you upgrade to a super-efficient water heater. Plus, you could qualify for tax credits.
Your water heater is the second-highest energy user in your home, drawing more than your refrigerator, clothes washer, dishwasher, and dryer combined. Water heaters use 20% of a home’s energy.
A heat pump water heater with the ENERGY STAR label is up to four times more efficient and uses 70% less energy than a standard model. Upgrading can help you prepare for a clean energy future, while also saving you hundreds of dollars every year in energy costs.
