EMWD Residential Rebate Programs

RESIDENTIAL REBATES ARE STILL AVAILABLE!

UPDATE: Starting September 21, 2009, a LIMITED number of rebates will be available through the SoCal Water$mart program when it re-launches for Southern California residential water customers. Residential water customers are those living in houses or apartments, townhomes, condominiums, or mobile home complexes with less than five dwelling units that are NOT represented by a homeowners association or property management company. Changes have been made to the program in order to promote installation of water-saving devices while working within a reduced budget.

Please note that funding is limited, and submission of a rebate application does NOT guarantee you will receive a rebate.

Rebates will be issued on a first-come, first-served basis until funding is exhausted. Some devices or products may no longer be eligible for a rebate, and rebate amounts are subject to change. Please check www.socalwatersmart.com for the latest information on qualifying devices and rebate amounts.

Purchases made prior to September 21, 2009 do not qualify.

The rebate program is being administered through the SoCal Water$mart program.

(888) 376-3314
