Rebates are credits applied to your water bill. They are applied after a customer installs water-saving appliances, or participates in our Water-wise Landscape Conservation (WWLC) program. For more information, read on, visit our Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.
Weather-based Irrigation Controllers, also known as smart irrigation controllers, are weather-based controllers that automatically adjust irrigation based on the weather of the location, needs of the landscape and soil conditions. Once the controller is set for a default maximum watering time based on the hottest time of the year, it will reduce watering time by a percentage value when less water is needed.
According to SoCal Water$mart’s website, WBICs can save up to 13,500 gallons of water a year from overwatering and ensures plant health. In addition to the rebate savings, customizing landscape watering schedules can save more than $700 on water bills over the controller’s lifetime.
High-Efficiency Toilets (HETs) and Dual Flush Toilets use less water than older models and save up to 15 gallons of water each day.
High Efficiency (HE) Clothes Washer use much less water and reduce energy costs by 50%.
