Prime Window Replacement Incentive for Electrically Heated Homes One of the best ways to improve on energy efficiency in a home is to replace old leaky windows with high efficiency replacement windows. Inland Power and Light, in partnership with the Bonneville Power Administration is pleased to offer the following incentive to our members who use electricity as their primary heating source for replacement of qualifying windows and patio doors with new energy efficient windows: Prime Window or Patio Door Replacement - $3 per square foot To qualify for rebate: - Homes must be existing electrically heated single family or manufactured homes.
- Prime windows must have an NFRC rated U-factor* of 0.30 or lower. Patio doors must have an NFRC rated U-factor of 0.35 or lower.
- Existing windows must be either double pane with a metal frame or a single pane window.
- Windows can be self-installed or installed by a qualified contractor.
- If windows are self-installed, a pre and post-inspection by an Inland representative is required.
- Contractor installed windows must have pre-existing window condition and U-factor of newly installed windows clearly stated on their invoice.
- Windows in unconditioned spaces, such as a garage or porch, do not qualify.
- Windows in newly constructed homes do not qualify for this incentive.
- Replacement installation that results in increased window area is not allowed under this program.
- Window installations must meet applicable building codes to qualify.
In addition to a rebate from Inland your installation may also qualify for a Federal Tax Credit. To find out if you qualify visit the Energy Star Website at www.energystar.gov. *The U-factor measures how well a product prevents heat from escaping. The lower the U-factor, the greater a window's resistance to heat flow and the better its insulating value. The U-factor is included in the energy performance rating label offered by the National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC). Program requirements: To qualify for this incentive you must be a current member of Inland Power & Light. Please fill out the attached form in its entirety and return to Inland with a dated copy of your invoice and documentation indicating U-factor rating for each window installed.
Contractor installed windows must have pre-existing window condition (i.e. Double pane/Metal frame or Single pane windows) and U-factor rating of newly installed windows clearly stated on their invoice. Requests for rebates must be received within 90 days of purchase. Inland Power and Light reserves the right to inspect and verify all window installations.
Please allow four to six weeks for processing. This program is subject to change without notice. To Apply: - Click on the "Rebate Form" link above, fill out the form in its entirety and mail to Inland Power & Light Co., 10110 W. Hallett Road, Spokane, WA 99224
