You’ve heard the statistics before – 25 percent of your home’s energy bill is due to inefficient windows according to the U.S. Department of Energy. Yet you still have inefficient windows - wasting money and making it harder to have a comfortable home in the winter.
There are many reasons to replace old windows, but let’s look at just one – available rebates. If you’re a Tacoma Power customer then you can receive up to $1000.00 when you replace your inefficient windows. It’s worth looking into. According to Tacoma Power, the remaining cost can be financed with their seven-year zero-interest loan much of the time. And, income qualified customers may be eligible for a grant that often covers the entire cost of your new windows.
Here are the qualifications:
- You’re a Tacoma Power customer
- Your home is electrically heated and built before 1988
- Your home is fully insulated (check out insulation rebates as well)
The Rebate:
- $4 per square foot to replace single-pane windows
- $2 per square foot to replace double-pane metal-framed windows
- Maximum rebate: $1000.00
