Upgrade Your Appliances and Get Money Back With New Rebates
What better way to celebrate the week of Earth Day, but to upgrade your appliances - recycle your old clunkers - and get paid for it?  The California Cash for Appliances Program (similar to the popular Cash for Clunkers Program and expected to be just as popular, www.cash4appliances.org) is being made available the days between April 22nd to May 23rd.  Rebates for qualified washers, refrigerators and A/C units will be available.  

If you have your eye on the latest clothes washers, now is the time to buy.  The program allows rebates for high efficiency clothes washers with a water factor* of 6.0 or less.  The program is complimented by another rebate from SoCalWaterSmart.com for clothes washers (contingent upon washers with a water factor of 4.0 or less and the recycling of the one you are replacing). 

Visit www.cash4appliances.org for details, and don't forget your extra $200.00 from www.SoCalWaterSmart.com if you meet their criteria.  Either way, you are doing yourself and the Earth a big favor. 

*Water factor = gallons of water per load per cubic foot of the machine.  The lower the water factor the more water efficient the machine.
