dKentucky , Indiana and Ohio Appliance Rebate Programs

 

Each state has allocated a portion of federal dollars toward their programs.  The individual state incentives are in addition to any Federal tax credit or utility rebates that may apply.  Programs start in the spring of 2010 and will continue until the funding for each state has been allocated.  These incentives are not only for high efficiency heating and cooling systems but energy efficient water heaters as well. They will run until DEDI's funds are exhausted, so we encourage consumers to start planning for their purchases. For questions concerning qualifying systems contact Eric Spencer at:
