If you’re installing a new energy-efficient water heater in WA, you may be eligible for generous government rebates. These include Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs) and various state-based incentives. The rebate value depends on your system’s efficiency, capacity, and location. Start by checking eligibility through the Clean Energy Regulator. Then apply through an approved installer or claim the rebate yourself using the online form provided by the program. Rebates can come as point-of-sale discounts, cash-back offers, or tax offsets. Make sure your system is on the approved products list and installed by a licensed WA plumber. For guidance on choosing the right setup, explore our hot water systems in Perth to find an option that qualifies and maximizes your rebate.
What Hot Water Systems Qualify for Rebates in Western Australia?
To qualify for a hot water rebate in WA, your system must be energy-efficient, such as a heat pump or solar hot water unit. These systems use less power and reduce emissions, aligning with the Renewable Energy Target. The system must be new and installed by a licensed plumber, following Western Australia’s building and plumbing codes. In most cases, replacements or second-hand units do not qualify. Also, to claim STCs, your system must appear on the Clean Energy Regulator’s approved product list. This list ensures that all qualifying systems meet the necessary performance and environmental standards. Choosing the right system not only saves on energy but also unlocks substantial rebates.
How Do You Apply for Hot Water Rebates in WA?
The application process for hot water rebates in WA depends on the rebate type. In many cases, rebates are applied automatically by your installer as a point-of-sale discount. Otherwise, homeowners can claim directly through an official portal. You’ll need to submit proof of installation, certificate of compliance, and proof of residency. Some programs require online application forms, while others allow postal submissions. Always keep invoices and technical specifications of the unit installed. Installers like Marchant Plumbing and Gas make this process easier by guiding you through each step, ensuring your system meets compliance and is eligible for maximum rebate value.
