Residential Clothes Washer & Dryer Rebates

Don't stop at choosing an energy-efficient washer; pair it with an efficient dryer and save even more.

Get clothes washer and dryer rebates for your home.

Clothes washers and dryers are the two highest energy-using appliances in the average home. Buying a new ENERGY STAR® clothes washer and dryer can reduce your energy and water use by 30%.

The DCSEU offers a standard $75 and a premium $100 rebate on qualifying clothes washers and a standard $175 and a premium $275 rebate on qualifying clothes dryers when upgrading your old electric equipment.  When upgrading from a gas dryer, you can get from $275 to $600 off qualifying dryers. The select appliances eligible for this rebate help you save more energy and money, while helping to protect the environment.
