If you are in the market for a new energy efficient appliance, and you live in California, you're in luck. There is a new California Appliance Rebate program that starts April 22, 2010.
There is limited funds to be applied toward rebates, $35.2 million to be exact. This is a result of funds made available by the Federal Government through the American Recovery Reinvestment Act (ARRA).
If you're planning on buying a dishwasher, hold up. Don't. Well, unless you must. This rebate program is only good on certain types of appliances, and there happens to be a list of exact qualifying appliances, too.
The 3 types of appliances that will qualify for the rebate under the program are:
- Clothes Washers (1.6 cu ft or greater capacity, cee tier 2 or higher efficiency)
- Refrigerators (7.75 cu ft or greater capacity, cee tier 2 or higher efficiency)
- Room Air Conditioners (10k Btu or greater, standard energy star threshold)
- Clothes Washer Rebate: $100
- Refrigerators Rebate: $200
- Room Air Conditioner Rebate: $50
Buying a home? Possibly here in Santa Clarita? These rebates could come in handy once you close escrow. Most of us know, it's easy to go broke after an expensive home purchase, especially factoring in all the remodeling we like to do once we get the keys!
Don't wait, the $35.2 million will be gone like THAT. Funds will run out soon. Buy a home and fix it up with some great appliances! Already own a home, or just rent? Buy some appliances! Tax credits, rebates...the deals are all around us!
