Greywater systems must meet all applicable state and local requirements to prevent potential health threats and environmental contamination. Please refer to the information below (see Greywater System Regulatory Requirements) regarding state and local greywater system requirements.

Weather-Based Irrigation Controller

Purchase and install a weather-based irrigation controller and receive a credit of up to $75 or $125, depending on the type of controller.

Weather-based irrigation controllers have clocks that use current weather information to automatically apply the appropriate amount of water to the landscape. They can be installed new or replace an existing controller.

There are two types of controllers:

  • Sensor-based controllers use on-site weather or solar sensors to create irrigation schedules (up to a $75 credit).
  • Signal-based controllers rely on daily weather updates received from satellite signals or require an internet connection to receive the information (up to a $125 credit).

Complete rebate eligibility requirements are listed on the Weather-Based Irrigation Controller rebate application.
