$200 ATTIC Insulation Upgrade Rebate

Lakeland Electric (LE) offers a $200 rebate to residential customers that upgrade attic insulation. Customers must have an inspection done by LE before installing additional insulation. The Lakeland Electric Energy Analyst will inspect attic insulation and issue the rebate certificate. The amount of insulation (R value) to be added will be stated on the certificate. The customer can use any of the insulation contractors in our area or self install. The rebate is available for customers that have an R-19 or less and the total R-value achieved must be R-30 or greater to qualify.

Process:

In response to the customer calling in and requesting the rebate or through the energy audits, the Energy Analysts will issue rebate certificates to qualifying customers along with a list of insulation contractors. If the customer chooses to add insulation the contractors will accept the certificate as $200 payment. The contractors will mail or fax the redeemed certificates to LE monthly. LE will pay the contractors $200 for each certificate returned. The payment will be processed by Energy and Business Services and sent to Revenue Management for payment. The Energy Analysts will inspect a minimum of 10% of the completed installations. If the customer installs the insulation the Energy Analyst will inspect, get the certificate from the homeowner, and a copy of the receipt. Payment will then be made to the customer.

Eligibility:
 

• Must be a Lakeland Electric customer
• Valid for existing single family homes (not new construction) with whole house air-conditioning and/or electric heat.
• Rebate for attic insulation only
• Rebates are subject to approval and contingent upon fund availability
• Rebates are subject to change without notice
• Limit one (1) insulation rebate per location
