Quick Cash Water Heating Program

The Quick Cash Water Heating Program is a simple way to earn monthly credits by heating water during off-peak hours. Install a large-capacity electric water heater with a mixing valve and let it heat water overnight when energy demand is lower, saving you up to $120 annually.

Benefits & Rebates

  • $10 monthly bill credit (requires 300 kWh minimum general service usage)
  • Rebate up to $1,250 for new installations
  • Efficient, off-peak water heating schedule

How Does It Work?

Water heaters charge for overnight, Monday through Friday, when energy demand is at a minimum. A mixing valve is installed to blend cold and hot water, delivering the desired temperature at your faucet while maximizing the tank's capacity. Your water heater charges between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. (October–April) or 10 p.m. and 9 a.m. (May–September), with no control on weekends or holidays unless there's a system emergency.
 

Requirements

  • 100-gallon electric water heater with mixing valve
  • Minimum 300 kWh/month general service usage
  • Outdoor installation of ESP demand management receiver required
  • No recirculation systems allowed
  • Cold water lines required for any humidifiers
