Roseville Rightsize Rebate Program

Roseville Right Size Rebate program is in full swing. This is a great way to get a new efficient Air Conditioner or Heat Pump system for your home....if you live in Roseville you can take advantage of this program but funds are limited.

What is the program all about? Well, this is a great way to turn in your energy waster and get a new one which will be better for the environment and allow Roseville Electric to reduce their production of electricity. Did you know that if your Air Conditioner or Heat Pump is 8 years old or older it could be using twice the energy of a new, current model?  That's true. The new systems available today are quieter, more efficient and much better for the environment.

Better for the environment? Absolutely. The most common refrigerant in older Air Conditioners and Heat Pumps use R22. This refrigerant has a chlorine atom in it which can destroy up to 100,000 Ozone molecules! Yep, that's right, the older Refrigerants are devastating to our atmosphere. The new R410A/Puron does not have this chlorine atom in it and so will not damage the ozone-that's good for all of us!

How is the rebate determined for my home? Very simply, it's based on the age and size of your home, and the type of heating and cooling system you have now. Rebates range from $2,400 to $5000. In some cases there will be only a small outlay of money while with others there still may be several thousands of dollars out of pocket but with a local utility helping pay the cost why not take advantage?

Supplies are limited! I have been told that there will be about 150 homes that will get the full $5000 and about 300 more that will share the remainder. Once the money is gone the program will be over.

One of the really great things about this program is that Roseville will require duct modifications which reflect modern methods of duct design that will allow for much more efficient airflow, reducing energy costs and increasing your comfort. Very few homes have balanced airflow to each room. This is a key feature to the Right Size program since air balancing will be required. You will feel the difference if your home has improper air flow now, and many do.

Live in Roseville and want to learn more about this program? Call or email me at 916-751-6060 or jamesmerts@gmail.com and I can give you a free consultation for your home.

Take Care!
