Residential Smart Thermostat Rebates

Automate your home for comfort and savings with a Smart Thermostat.

Smart thermostat rebates for your home

  • A smart thermostat is a home heating and cooling control that has many of the same capabilities as a programmable thermostat, but with convenient WiFi-enabled  features to help you save energy. Smart thermostats have functionality to adjust HVAC schedules based on local sensors, software algorithms, and/or occupancy sensors. This means that based on your temperature settings, over time the thermostat will slowly adjust your settings by incremental amounts, saving energy while maintaining a comfortable temperature.
  • The DCSEU offers a $50 rebate on qualifying smart thermostats. The select ENERGY STAR® appliances eligible for this rebate can help you save energy and money – protect the environment, too.
