Chicagoland Rebates
The Chicagoland Natural Gas Savings Program offers rebates to encourage customers to make energy-efficient improvements to their homes, apartment buildings and businesses.
Energy Efficiency Rebates
Homeowners (Service Classification No. 1) are eligible for rebates on energy-efficient furnaces, boilers, water heaters and attic insulation purchased between now and October 31, 2010.
To qualify, gas furnaces, boilers and water heaters must be installed by professional contractors. Property owners may opt to self-install attic insulation or hire a professional contractor.
The maximum rebate amounts are: $750 for insulation, $400 for boilers, $250 for furnaces and $50 for water heaters.
To see a full list of eligible models and insulation and learn how to apply, visit Chicagoland Natural Gas Savings Program or call 866-964-7345. Applications must be made no later than 60 days after the purchase or by November 30, 2010, whichever comes first.
The Chicagoland Natural Gas Savings Program is funded by customers of Peoples Gas, through a line item on the bill called the Enhanced Efficiency Program. The Program is guided by Peoples Gas, the Citizen's Utility Board, the City of Chicago Department of Environment, the Environmental Law and Policy Center, and the Illinois Attorney General's Office.
