Pool Pump Rebate
Get a $300 Rebate on an ENERGY STAR® Certified Pool Pump.
Did you know your pool pump could be your home’s second-largest energy user, costing up to $310 a year in electricity? Upgrade to an ENERGY STAR® certified, variable speed pool pump and start saving immediately—with a $300 rebate to help you get started.
Why Choose ENERGY STAR?®
Unlike conventional pumps that run at full speed all the time, ENERGY STAR® certified, variable speed models use advanced motors, smart hydraulics, and variable-speed technology to match the task—saving energy and extending equipment life.

- Is 7–10 years old
