Today is the first day to file for your Cash For Appliances rebate in Pennsylvania. There is $11 million set aside for PA residents and rebate forms are available online. Note that in PA our rebates are specifically for high efficiency home heating equipment such as a water heater or furnace. There is no rebate offered by Pennsylvania for ovens, refrigerators, etc. There are other rebates available elsewhere though.

Has anyone taken advantage of the energy rebates offered by Allegheny Power and Duquesne Light? Act 129 was signed into law two years ago in PA. It requires utility companies, two of which are Allegheny Power and Duquesne Light, to progressively reduce electricity usage through 2013. In order to incentivize their customers to consume less energy, both Allegheny Power and Duquesne Light are offering an array of rebates for energy efficient appliance purchases. Additionally, Duquesne Light offers rebates for making energy efficient upgrades to your home.


There are a variety of rebates available to customers. Some have expiration dates so you should check the websites soon for the rebates you may qualify for. Both companies are offering a refrigerator recycling program, and Allegheny Power is also offering the incentive for recycling old freezers and room air conditioners. A number is also listed that you can call in order to arrange the free pickup and hauling of your old appliance. You will be paid $35.00 for the old refrigerator. All appliances must still be working in order to be eligible for the credit. Allegheny Power pays $25.00 for room size air conditioners and $35 for freezers.
