Smart Irrigation Timer Rebate

We offer rebates as an incentive for customers to purchase and install Smart Irrigation Controllers. It is estimated that up to 50% of the water applied to landscapes is wasted due to incorrect controller settings and infrequent adjusting of those settings. Smart Irrigation Controllers adjust the watering schedule automatically as the weather changes.

Eligibility

Rebates are available for single family residential properties within the CCWD Retail and Wholesale Service Area.

Rebate Amount

The rebate is $12 per active (used) irrigation station (zone) up to 50% of the list cost of the controller(s). Limit one rebate per customer per address.  So for example if you purchase a smart controller and you have seven (7) irrigation stations (zone), the rebate would be $84 – (12 x 7) or 50% of the list price, whichever is less.

Terms & Conditions

To receive a rebate, applicants must adhere to the Single Family Smart Irrigation Controller Rebate Program Terms & Conditions. Please read these before applying.
