| State Appliance Rebate Program Colorado program information In
the coming months many US states and territories will give rebates
for replacing your old tank water heater or boiler with an ENERGY STAR
qualified Rinnai tankless water heater or wall-mounted boiler.*
Rebates will differ by state and can be combined with the Federal Tax
Credit of up to $1500 still being offered through 2010.*
Programs will end when funding is depleted, and it is likely that the money will go quickly!*

Change your air filter regularly Check your filter every month, especially during heavy use months (winter and summer). If the filter looks dirty after a month, change it. At a minimum, change the filter every 3 months. A dirty filter will slow down air flow and make the system work harder to keep you warm or cool - wasting energy. A clean filter will also prevent dust and dirt from building up in the system - leading to expensive maintenance and/or early system failure. Tune up your HVAC equipment yearly Just as a tune-up for your car can improve your gas mileage, a yearly tune-up of your heating and cooling system can improve efficiency and comfort. Maintain your equipment: a checklist. Install a programmable thermostat A programmable thermostat is ideal for people who are away from home during set periods of time throughout the week. Through proper use of pre-programmed settings, a programmable thermostat can save you about $180 every year in energy costs. Seal your heating and cooling ducts Ducts that move air to-and-from a forced air furnace, central air conditioner, or heat pump are often big energy wasters. Sealing and insulating ducts can improve the efficiency of your heating and cooling system by as much as 20 percent - and sometimes much more. |
