Save Money On Your Water Bill In Scottsdale AZPlumbing Tips From The Pros On How To Save Money On Your Scottsdale Water Bill

The City of Scottsdale has some amazing rebate programs. These programs are geared to lower the usage of wasted water and help you save money on your scottsdale water bill. As homeowners, we don’t typically think about all of the plumbing fixtures in our home and how they can be using more water than necessary. The City of Scottsdale has thought of just those things. So they are encouraging their residents to reduce their water usage by improving their plumbing fixtures.

Did you know that traditional salt water softeners waster a lot of water?  Did you know that they also put salt into the system?  The City of Scottsdale prides itself on recycling water. But salt systems dump salt back into the water system and shows back up in the recycled water.  Salt in our water can be harmful to people, plant life and our environment.  The City of Scottsdale has to go through very expensive measures to reduce the salinity levels. So now the city of Scottsdale is looking to their residents for help.

City of Scottsdale Programs To Help You Save Money

The City of Scottsdale is offering for a limited time a rebate on your water bill when you upgrade to a high-efficiency model.  Deadline is 4/30/2016

You will need to meet the requirements outlined by the City of Scottsdale. Next, fill out their rebate form and you can find more specific information on their website

Approved applicants will receive a one-time $50 rebate for replacing an existing time-clock-based, self-regenerating, salt-using water softener with a more efficient demand-based water softener. It should be noted that this option is subject to very specific requirements of both existing and replacement water softener models.

  • Water softener replacement must be demand-initiated and cannot be time clock-based self-regeneration. Manufacturers vary in language when describing their products. Refer to the packaging or the manufacturer’s website for efficiency information.
  • If you elect to use a self-regenerating salt-using water softener, we recommend choosing a unit that is salt-efficient. The salt-efficiency needs to be at least 4,000 grains of hardness removed for each pound of salt used and with no more than 5 gallons of regeneration water used per 1,000 grains of hardness removed.
  • Replacement water softener can be from any retailer (including online). Make sure the receipt is dated and lists the type of water softener purchased. Original receipts from major home improvement stores with stock-keeping units (SKU) or universal product codes (UPC) are acceptable for proof of purchase.
  • Upgrade option requires appropriate proof of purchase but does not require an inspection.
