PASADENA – Rebates on water-saving appliances and equipment are back on offer to Pasadena Water and Power customers this week in a program that was put on hold this summer because record demand used up all the available funds, officials said Thursday.
“It was so popular last year it ran out of funding, and we expect demand to be equally great this year,” PWP spokeswoman Nancy Long said of the program Metropolitan Water District is offering its member agencies, including the Pasadena utility.
“That’s why we want Pasadena customers to get in line early on,” Long said.
The MWD has set aside $9 million for the current program, Long said, with PWP kicking in $223,000,

Pasadena rebates through the residential “Water$ense” program include: high-efficiency toilets, $30-$50; efficient clothes washers, $100; weather-based irrigation controllers, $150; rotating sprinkler nozzles, $5; and, new to the program, synthetic turf, 60 cents a square foot.
Long said the synthetic turf is “low maintenance, evergreen … and saves many thousands of gallons that would otherwise go to watering one of the most water-thirsty of plants, grass.”
Pasadena commercial and multi-family water customers also can apply for “Save A Buck” program rebates up to $200 on zero- and ultra low-flow urinals, $150 on water brooms ($150), and $25 on

Multi-family and commercial rebate applicants must make a reservation before purchase, Long said.
Other residents don’t need a reservation, she said, but they should go to the Web site to make sure they’re “purchasing a qualifying product.” They then send in their application – which can be downloaded from the Web site – along with the receipt to get the rebate, Long said.
The MWD Web site will have a gauge showing how much funding is left as the program progresses, she said. Reflecting the financial downturn, Long said, some of the rebates are “a little lower” than last year and people may still feel they can’t afford to replace appliances in tight financial times.

“But obviously water rates have gone up all over California and anything users can do to keep in the lower tiers means substantial savings,” Long said. For more information on the rebate procedure, go to www.PasadenaSavesWater.com or call (626)744-6970.
