The program allows participants to earn up to a $150 rebate by embracing behavioral changes that lead to a 10% or 20% reduction in water use within their homes.

The year-long initiative aims to spur long-term behavior changes that contribute to sustainable reductions in water usage among participating households. The City of Avondale will empower residents with upfront education and tools to enhance their water conservation efforts. Throughout the program, participants will receive updates on their progress, ensuring they stay on track to meet the minimum of a 10% or 20% water reduction goal.

The program allows participants to earn a $100 rebate by embracing behavioral changes that lead to a 10% reduction in water usage or a $150 rebate for a 20% reduction in water usage within and outside of their homes.

Through their participation in the program, residents will learn how to become “leak detectives,” as well as learn about the benefits of water-efficient appliances and fixtures. Participants will also have opportunities to participate in optional landscaping and irrigation workshops to learn how to use water more efficiently outdoors.

This program is funded by a grant from the Water Infrastructure Finance Authority. Learn more about the AquaSmart: Reduce Your Use Rewards program, sign up, and contribute to a sustainable future. Register at www.avondaleaz.gov/waterconservation or email [email protected] or call 623-333-4422.
