water heater is installed in a new structure or if it
replaces a fossil fired unit the rebate amount will be

the rebate amount for the second water heater will be $75.
If the new electric model replaces an existing electric unit

Cooperative to control the heating elements of their water
heater for periods of no longer than 5 hours in any given
