Energy Rebates for Appliances Starts Next Month!
If you are in the market for energy efficient appliances, a rebate program starts nationwide in February.
The Cadillac Evening News has this story:
"Local appliance retailers say they have yet to be briefed on program details, but some information is available from a document the State of Michigan submitted to the federal government outlining how it expects to implement the plan.
"The Department of Energy is making $300 million available nationwide for the energy-efficient appliance rebate program. Part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, the program’s goals are to help spur economic growth, save energy, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and create jobs in retailing in manufacturing.
"In Michigan, rebates will be available through the Michigan Appliance Rebate Program to be offered to state residents only."Rebates are expected to be available on a model-by-model basis. Certain refrigerators will qualify for either a $50 or $100 rebate, depending on efficiency. Dishwashers will qualify for $25 to $50. Purchases of certain propane furnaces will bring a $300 rebate, with $100 rebates available for propane water heaters. Rebates of $300 will be available for some oil furnaces, while certain solar water heaters will qualify for rebates of 20 percent of the purchase price, with a maximum limit of $1,200."
