Rebates for Water Conservation in the San Francisco Bay Area
Feb 23, 2010 | Water Conservation
Many Bay Area water suppliers provide rebates to encourage water savings. Typically these apply to washing machines, toilets, lawn replacement, and watering controls. Rebates vary by water billing company and are not the same for all cities within the same county.
To locate your rebates, look under your county and find your water billing company.
Note: Some rebates have time restrictions. Some are available until funds run out and others only until June, 2010. Some suppliers with no rebates now plan to offer them later this year. Grab the rebate if you can! If none is offered, check back.
