Energy Rebates from Governor's Energy Office Running Out
2-1-11
DENVER, CO - The Governor's Energy Office, KOSI 101.1 FM and local retailer Appliance Factory Outlet are teaming up on February 5 for the final push of the Recharge Colorado rebate program, which offers rebates for people who replace an existing appliance with one that is energy efficient and EnergyStar qualified. Less than one-tenth of the $3.4 million in funds set aside last March for energy rebates are remaining from the GEO.
The live radio event will take place this Saturday, Feb 5, at Appliance Factory Outlet, located at 5880 W. 88th Ave. in Westminster from 2-4 pm. Sales associates will help consumers fill out rebate forms and KOSI 101.1 will give away a GE front loading high-efficiency washing machine and dryer set via a raffle.
"Our sales associates are experts in the program and can help people get set up," said Jason Duong, a purchasing specialist at Appliance Factory Outlet.
As of February 1, $77,900 of the funds remained available, and any qualified appliance purchased from April 19, 2010 and later is available for the rebate program.
"Since the program rolled out in March of last year, Appliance Factory Outlet has been one of the biggest supporters of the program," said Duong. "We don't want people to lose out on the money that's left."
In order to get the rebate, consumers can go to Appliance Factory Outlet and fill out all the appropriate forms to send them in. The GEO is offering $75 rebates for clothes washers, $50 rebates for dishwashers, and $100 for refrigerators. Proof of recycling for refrigerators is needed in order to get the full rebate for the fridge; without it the rebate is $50
