Unlike other electric companies, United encourages members to use less of the product we sell. That is because United Cooperative Services is not a profit-driven utility company, but rather a member-focused, rate-driven provider that delivers reliable service at the lowest possible cost.

The rebate will be paid after United has received completed forms and verification (which may include an insulation card or invoice showing type and level of purchased insulation). United reserves the right to make on-site inspection of any equipment submitted for a rebate. Payment is made to the person who filed for program participation. Any other payment arrangements must be submitted in writing by the homeowner or developer.

All water heater efficiency ratings are based on the ratings shown in the GAMA directory. A licensed dealer or contractor must install the heating/cooling systems. SEER ratings are based on the Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute Directory of equipment for single-family residential use. To qualify for United’s HVAC equipment rebate, both heat pump components—indoor (coil) unit and outdoor (condenser) unit—must be properly matched and determined by the ARI guide. Rebates will not be considered when only one component is replaced.
