Rebate Programs and Conservation Resources to Save Water and Money

In Arizona, we are always looking for additional ways to strengthen our water-saving ethic. That’s why developing a wide array of programs and resources that are easily accessible to residents and businesses remains a priority for our AMWUA communities. Their water conservation professionals work diligently to provide valuable information, tools, and assistance to help everyone use water more efficiently indoors and outdoors.

Rebates and Incentives
Each AMWUA municipality provides its own unique blend of water conservation programs, including rebates and incentives tailored to meet its customers' needs and best address their water management goals within each municipality. Various rebates are currently available to help residents decrease their water use and increase savings for the long term - indoors and out. 

Inside your home, you may be eligible to receive a rebate for high-efficiency fixtures or appliances and WaterSense-labeled products. There are available outdoor rebates, where most water use occurs, landscape conversion, including turf removal, and water-efficient devices like smart irrigation controllers, just to name a few. Many cities also offer free water conservation kits.

Various rebates are also available to non-residential customers, including businesses, commercial properties, and HOAs looking to increase their water efficiency through large landscape grass removal and smart controllers. Many also offer water-efficiency check-ups.

Cities budget a limited amount of money for these programs, so filling out an application soon is wise. Visit the rebates section  for the most up-to-date information and appropriate links to learn how to apply for the current rebate programs within your city. 

Free Classes and Workshops
The AMWUA communities host various educational workshops  throughout the year to share information and expertise to empower you to be a little more water-wise while learning something new. These free classes and workshops teach you about various topics, including sustainable desert landscapes and how to prune a tree for health and beauty. Learn how to manage your irrigation controller, water efficiently, find and fix leaks, and unravel the mysteries of your irrigation system. This type of knowledge can lead to beautiful and water-efficient outdoor spaces. 

Many cities are also hosting Water 101 classes so you can learn more about your city’s water supplies and hear more about their long-term planning efforts to ensure reliable water supplies for their communities.

You can check with your city’s conservation offices  for more information and to access on-demand courses and workshops.

Additional Resources
You can get additional help and information when you need it in various ways. The AMWUA communities have professional conservation staff dedicated to assisting residents and businesses in efficiently using water. Plenty of valuable information on our website highlights how to conserve .
