Are you a Wyoming homeowner looking to save money on your utility bills while also reducing your environmental impact? Well, Dominion Energy's ThermWise program in Wyoming does just that. Save money and reduce your energy consumption by asking your Aspen Mountain Plumbing technician about the rebates offered on energy-efficient plumbing equipment.
Rebates for Plumbing Equipment
Dominion Energy's ThermWise program is designed to encourage customers to upgrade to more energy-efficient appliances and systems, including plumbing-related equipment. By participating in this program, you can not only save money on the upfront costs of these upgrades but also enjoy long-term energy savings.
The ThermWise program offers rebates for various types of plumbing equipment, including:
✅ Smart Thermostats: You can receive a $50 rebate for installing a qualifying smart thermostat that can be controlled via your smartphone.
✅ Water Heaters: Rebates are available for ENERGY STAR® certified natural gas water heaters. The rebate amount varies based on the type of water heater and its Uniform Energy Factor (UEF). For example, a gas-fired storage water heater with a UEF of 0.80 can qualify for a $350 rebate, while a gas-fired tankless water heater with a UEF of 0.90 is eligible for the same amount.
To ensure your eligibility for these rebates, it's crucial to have your new plumbing equipment installed by a licensed contractor. Self-installed units do not qualify for rebates.
Eligible Plumbing Equipment for Rebates
The ThermWise program offers rebates specifically for natural gas water heaters. The rebate amounts are based on the type of water heater and its UEF:
💧 Gas-Fired Storage Water Heater (Tank):
- UEF of 0.64: $75 rebate
- UEF of 0.80: $350 rebate
💧 Gas-Fired Tankless Water Heater:
- UEF of 0.80: $250 rebate
- UEF of 0.90: $350 rebate
To qualify for these rebates, the water heater must be ENERGY STAR® certified and installed by a licensed plumbing contractor.
Maximum Rebate Amount for Plumbing Equipment
The highest available rebate for plumbing equipment through the ThermWise program is $350. This rebate is available for both gas-fired storage water heaters with a UEF of 0.80 or higher and gas-fired tankless water heaters with a UEF of 0.90 or higher.
