Snohomish County PUD Weatherization Rebates

How it works

Snohomish County PUD says customers with electrically heated homes may receive rebates for three energy-saving improvements: insulation, duct sealing, and windows. To qualify, the home must be an existing residential dwelling served by Snohomish PUD, and the work must be completed by a PUD registered contractor. The page says contractors include the rebate in the initial bill so the customer can collect the savings instantly. After that, the contractor submits the rebate application and any supporting documentation, and the PUD pays the rebate amount after review, inspection, and approval.

What the money covers

The program covers:

• insulation
• duct sealing
• windows and sliding glass doors

The page emphasizes comfort, lower energy bills, and reduced drafts and heat loss. It also says insulation can reduce noise.

• Insulation: $1 per square foot
• Duct sealing:
  • single-family home: $5 per linear foot up to $450
  • single-wide manufactured home: $200
  • double- and triple-wide manufactured home: $400
• Windows and sliding glass doors:
  • replacing single-pane windows: $100 per window
  • replacing double-pane frame windows: $50 per window

Requirements the page states

• Customers must own a single-family home, manufactured home, townhouse, or condominium in a building with up to four attached dwellings.
• Townhomes that do not vertically overlap are exempt from the unit cap.
• All work must be done by a PUD registered contractor.
• For insulation, attic insulation must be R-19 or less to R-49; floor insulation must be R-11 or less to R-30; wall insulation must be R-0 to R-11.
• For windows, new windows must be double- or triple-pane and rated U.30 or lower.

Timing and deadlines

The page does not list a closing date or application deadline. It presents the rebates as currently available and says the rebate is subject to review, inspection, and approval after installation.

Other notes

The page also mentions a separate multifamily window and insulation rebate document for multifamily homes, and points customers to PSCCU energy-smart loans and the state/federal incentives database for other financing and savings options.
