Rebates

Tricounty Rural Electric Cooperative rebates help members upgrade to new energy-efficient appliances and systems. This helps members save money on electric bills and helps Tricounty manage demand for electricity.

If you are interested in our rebate programs, please contact our office.

Air to Air Heat Pump

 

All heat pump units must be new, and wood burners are excluded as a qualifying fossil-fuel heat source. The cutoff temperature setting for heating shall not be set higher than 35 degrees Fahrenheit.  

$300 REBATE for the installation of a Dual Fuel unit with a fossil-fuel furnace or as an add-on to your existing fossil-fuel furnace.

$300 REBATE for installation of a Dual Fuel unit with an electric resistance furnace.

In addition to Tricounty Rural Electric's rebate, you may also qualify for a federal tax credit. Please go to www.energystar.gov and click on "Tax Credits" for more information.

 

Electric Water Heaters

 

A rebate of the purchase price of the unit, or $350, whichever is lower, will be paid for installing or replacing an electric water heater. The following provisions will apply:
 

  • All water heaters must be new to qualify for a rebate
  • There is a 40-gallon minimum size to qualify for a rebate
  • Rebates are not paid for replacement of non-leaking water heaters or water heaters that are replaced while in warranty
  • No rebates are available for solar, heat pump, or on-demand tankless water heaters

 
For purposes of load control, members are encouraged to allow the installation of a radio control switch (RCS) on qualifying water heater units. New technology incorporates digital controls on water heaters that allow the owner to program the run time and temperature of the water heater based on individual needs. There is a potential conflict when the RCS is connected to these types of units. Therefore, we will not install an RCS on a digital control type water heater. A monthly bill credit of $2.00 is given to all members who have an RCS installed on a qualifying water heater.

 
In addition to Tricounty Rural Electric's rebate, you may also qualify for a federal tax credit. Please go to www.energystar.gov and click on "Tax Credits" for more information.  

 

Geothermal System

 

All units must be new, and rebates are available in new construction or as a replacement for an existing heating system.

$800 REBATE for the installation of a geothermal system with electric resistance supplemental heat.

$800 REBATE for the installation of a geothermal system with fossil-fuel backup.

In addition to Tricounty Rural Electric's rebate, you may also qualify for a federal tax credit. Please go to www.energystar.gov and click on "Tax Credits" for more information.
