More funds available for appliance upgrades....

Reminder: The purchase period for the Texas Appliance Mail-In Rebate Program will begin on December 20, 2010.

Additional Funds Added to Mail-In Appliance Rebate Program

The Texas Comptroller's office is adding more money to the upcoming ENERGY STAR® appliance mail-in rebate program to allow more Texans to take advantage of rebates. An additional $8.5 million is being added to the initial $10 million. The money is from unused public sector energy efficiency funds transferred from the State Energy Program to the rebate program. All funds are part of the federal stimulus program. Consumers can start buying appliances on December 20 and, after installation, mail in a completed rebate application form and a copy of the receipt to apply for the rebates. The mail-in rebate program will remain open until the available funds are distributed.

Application Form is Now Available

The application form for the Texas Appliance Mail-In Rebate Program is now available. Consumers can begin to purchase eligible ENERGY STAR® appliances on or after December 20, 2010. An application form is not required at the time of purchase, but is needed at the time of installation for disposal or recycling information.
