Tired of the “brr” in the winter and the sweats in the summer?

If cost has been holding you back from making your home more energy-efficient, EPB and TVA’s new EnergyRight® Home Energy Rebate Program can save you thousands of dollars on energy upgrades (like sealing window gaps, improving insulation, or replacing or tuning up an HVAC). Here’s how:

🏡 3 reasons to upgrade

  1. Home efficiency upgrades better regulate the temperature and air quality inside your home, creating a more comfortable space and a healthier environment.
  2. Rebates help customers save money twice — first, by getting the rebates for upgrading and, second, by reducing monthly energy bills for years to come (think: better energy efficiency = less energy used).
  3. EPB Energy Pros guide you through the process at no cost — both to help you identify the most cost-benefiting upgrades to make and to check contractor’s work to ensure home improvements maximize energy efficiency + savings.

💸 6 rebates to jump on

Pro tip: There’s no limit to the number of improvements you can make or the rebates you can claim. Here’s what to upgrade and the money you save:

  1. HVAC — Get up to $1,500 per system
  2. Ductwork — Get up to $300 per system
  3. Heat Pump Water Heater — Get up to $800 per unit
  4. Insulation — Get up to $700
  5. Envelope Air Sealing — Get up to $300
  6. Window Replacements — Get $15 per window

🧑‍🔧 4 steps to saving (twice)

  1. Choose a qualifying project + get free advice from EPB Energy ProsSM.
  2. Hire an approved contractor for your existing home. Psst: DIY projects and work completed by unapproved contractors are not eligible for rebates.
  3. Once contractors complete work and submit documentation...
  4. You receive your rebates (and start saving monthly) — yes, that’s double the savings.
