Algona Municipal Utilities Residential Energy Efficiency Rebate Program
Effective April 1, 2009
The efficient use of energy is important to Algona Municipal Utilities. To that end, AMU offers rebates to encourage the purchase of more efficient electric appliances.
The AMU rebate program applies to the following new appliances: electric water heaters, electric central air conditioners, electric heat pumps (air source or geothermal), and electric washing machines with horizontal axis or equal.
All geothermal heat pumps planned within the City Limits of Algona must be approved by the Algona Municipal Utilities Board of Trustees prior to installation. All geothermal heat pump systems that utilize a well must meet all requirements for a nonpublic water supply well as established by the State of Iowa. Closed loop systems must have full depth grouting and pump and dump systems must have full depth grouting to the bottom of the well casing. Pump and dump geothermal systems cannot be discharged to the storm sewer or sanitary sewer system. Wells for geothermal heat pump systems cannot have any interconnection with the public water system and cannot be used for domestic water use.
Appliances and/or equipment must be installed on the Algona Municipal Utilities electrical system.
To apply for rebate, a copy of the original sales receipt with the cost of the appliance clearly shown separate from other charges must accompany the appliance rebate application. After this is received, AMU will inspect the appliance to see if it qualifies. If the appliance meets the requirements, payment will then be issued to the authorized dealer and the customer listed on the rebate application form.
AMU will stock the 40 gallon Marathon, 50 gallon Marathon, and 85 gallon Marathon water heaters for approved dealers to sell to AMU customers. The Marathon water heater is warranted not to leak for as long as you own your home. AMU also carries warranty replacement thermostats and elements.
AMU reserves the right to change, modify or end any or all parts of the rebate program with or without notice.
