[Greenbuilding] [BULK] Question about appliances

[Bobbi Chukran]

Thanks.  I did check into this. Our local electric co-op (PEC) as far 
as I can find out, only gives rebates on HVAC systems if you replace 
the entire unit with new.  We will be adding more ventilation, 
dehumidifier, but these aren't eligible.  We don't have plans to 
replace the whole system at this time.

And unfortunately, we are moving OUT of Travis County into 
Williamson.  Travis is much more friendly towards energy-saving 
appliances and greenbuilding and such.  AFAIK, Williamson offers no 
rebates for anything.  If anyone here knows differently, I'd love to 
hear about it.

And the City of Leander, well, let's just say they are not much 
interested in the "green thing."

utility gives a rebate for buying energy star rated appliances.
