Toilet Rebates

watersense program logo

Looking to replace an older or broken toilet? Need an incentive? Replace old toilets with WaterSense toilets (https://www.epa.gov/watersense/residential-toilets) and qualify for a rebate!

 

Toilets account for more than 30% of a home's indoor water use. Make the smart choice and replace your toilets with a more modern and efficient model. The EPA WaterSense program certifies toilets that meet rigorous testing. Look for the WaterSense logo!

Older toilets may use up to 6 gallons per flush, while WaterSense High Efficiency Toilets (HET) use no more than  1.28 gallons per flush, while still providing equal or superior performance. HETs save more than 60% versus older toilets, and use 20% less water than the current federal standard of 1.6 gallons per flush. For a family of four, installation of HETs could mean water savings of more than 50 gallons per day or 20,000 gallons a year.

 

The Rebate Process:

The City of Corvallis will offer a one-time rebate of up to $75 each for up to three HET toilets per customer, installation address, or utility account.

 

  1. Purchase eligible toilet/s (WaterSense Product Search (epa.gov) ) and install at your residence.
  2. Completely fill out rebate application here ( rebate application. ): If applying for up to 3 rebates, fill out form only once and include information on all three toilets.
  3. Include proof of purchase in the form of a sales receipt or purchase invoice. This must clearly state the purchaser's name and address, and the model number of the toilet in order to be eligible.
  4. Mail completed application and proof of purchase to Corvallis Public Works. Application must be received within three months of purchase. Please allow four to six weeks for your rebate check to arrive.
