What is the Smart Thermostat Rewards program?

Smart thermostats are a convenient way to manage your home’s energy use. Whether you’re at home or away from home, adjusting your thermostat is quick and easy. Plus, when you enroll your new or existing smart thermostat in the Smart Thermostat Rewards program, you’re helping make sure that electricity is available to the entire region during times of peak energy demands — like a winter cold snap or a summer heat streak. You’ll receive an enrollment and an annual participation rebate. (Check with your local power company to confirm program participation.)

How do heat pump water heaters work?

Unlike traditional electric water heaters that generate heat, heat pump water heaters extract heat from the surrounding environment and transfer it into the water inside a tank. This process delivers hot water up to five times more efficiently than a conventional gas, electric resistance or propane water heater.

What are the benefits of a heat pump water heater?

A heat pump water heater consumes up to 70% less energy than a conventional water heater and typically lasts longer, too. Plus, it doesn’t create toxic combustion exhaust gases, such as carbon monoxide. Because it doesn’t rely on combustion, it minimizes the risk of fire or explosion that can be caused by a fuel-fired water heater or associated gas piping.

How do I redeem my heat pump water heater coupon?

To get your coupon, you’ll need to select a retailer and add the coupon to your cart. You’ll be able to verify eligibility and complete checkout. Your retailer choice is final and cannot be changed or canceled. In-store only coupons must be used at a location on the Participating Retail Store List.
