Folks looking to upgrade the energy efficiency of their homes could save big bucks on major appliances.
Residents can now qualify to receive a 15-hundred dollar rebate through the Florida Energy Star Residential HVAC Rebate Program.
The rebate covers new central air conditioners, and air source and geothermal heat pumps that meet requirements.
Appliance Store Manager Quinton McDaniel says, "We've seen a huge influx of people not only with the air conditions also our water heater program. Their promoting coming out and doing the energy surveying on your home and pushing the knowledge out for energy savings and just teaching you how to be come more energy efficiency."
Homeowners must have their homes air ducts tested and their must be minimal leakage to the outdoors to qualify.
About 15-million dollars has been set aside to fund this program through December 31 or until funds run out.

whatever
The Florida HVAC rebate program is a JOKE. The state forces you to have a whole-house leakage test to get the rebate. By their estimate, that's $500. If you do not meet their (high) air-leakage standards, you repair ($ lots of money) and test again (another $500). In other words, WHAT REBATE ? . NO REBATE FOR HOMEOWNERS -- JUST FULL EMPLOYMENT FOR DUCT TESTERS !
MORE GOVT. BAIL OUTS. this won't happen in a non election yr.
