The Frontier Power Company offers several savings programs. Water heater rebates, radio control switch rebates, and the "Cool Returns" programs are all designed to save electricity and save you money.
Water heater rebates - Before purchasing a new electric water heater, be sure to review the specification sheet to qualify for a $150 or $200 credit. Click HERE for the specifications.
Radio control switches - This is a device placed on your electric water heater which allows Buckeye Power to shut your heater down temporarily should a peak alert arise (coldest or hottest day of the year). Each member utilizing a radio control switch will receive $25 credit on their bill every December.
Cool Returns - This new program offers an initial $100 rebate, and a $4 credit on your Frontier Power electric bill for the months of June, July, August and September. A device, much like a radio control switch used on water heaters, will be placed on your central air conditioning unit. Your air conditioning unit is controlled up to 40% during peak alerts, so you will not be without air conditioning completely. Please note, NO WINDOW AIR CONDITIONERS are eligible for this program.
Energy Star Refrigerators, Freezers, and Air Conditioners - Replace and discard your old refrigerator and/or freezer with a new Energy Star rated qualifying refrigerator or freezer and receive $100 rebate. New units must be Energy Star rated and between 10 - 30 cubic feet. Energy label and receipts are required. Click HERE(link is external) for the program information.
