Appliance Rebates
Grant: ARRA (non-SEP)
The NSOE received $2,495,000 to be used for a State Energy Efficient Appliance Rebate Program. This program allowed Nevada residents to receive rebates when they purchased energy efficient appliances after April 17, 2010. The rebates were available to Nevada residents who replaced a used appliance with an Energy Star qualified refrigerator ($200), freezer ($150), washing machine ($150) or dishwasher ($100) from a Nevada retailer. Applicants could reserve their reservation on or after April 17 at www.nevadaappliancerebate.com before they bought an appliance.
Appliance Rebate Program Re-launch
The Nevada Appliance Rebate Program was re-launched on September 1 to allocate the remaining
$1,240,000. This second phase required participants to purchase their appliances first and then
fill out the rebate form online. Rebates were mailed out in 60-90 days after participants submitted
the correct paperwork.
All remaining funds have been allocated and the program is now closed. Visit www.nevadaappliancerebate.com to check on your rebate status.
Important Note:
On On January 20, 2010, DOE and EPA disqualified 21 refrigerator models from the ENERGY STAR program because independent testing indicated they did not meet the efficiency criteria. This included 10 models sold under the LG brand, and 11 sold under the Sears/Kenmore brand. The disqualification was effective on that date and the affected models have been removed from the ENERGY STAR qualified product list. LG is working with retailers to remove the ENERGY STAR label from models that are in retail stores, but this may not happen immediately in all locations. DOE expects States to take reasonable steps to avoid issuing rebate payments for these non-qualified models. For example, States may wish to notify retailer partners that they will not be honoring rebates for these products, and incorporate language on their program web site informing consumers about these disqualified models. The affected LG models are: LFX21975ST, LFX25975SB, LFX25975ST, LFX25975SW, LMX25985SB, LMX25985ST, LMX25985SW, LFX28977ST, LFX28977SW, and LFX28977SB. The Sears/Kenmore models are: 79732, 79733, 79737, 79752, 79753, 79754, 79757, 79782, 79783, and 79789.
