Terms and Conditions

SOUTH COAST AIR QUALITY MANAGEMENT DISTRICT (South Coast AQMD) GO ZERO REBATE TERMS & CONDITIONS
  1. Funding is limited and submitting a rebate application does not guarantee you will receive a rebate. Rebates will be issued to eligible recipients until funding is depleted. Consumers with South Coast AQMD qualified appliances installed after the specified date may be eligible until rebate funds are exhausted or South Coast AQMD issues a public notice closing the rebate offer period.
    • Funding will be made available in phases.
    • The program may be paused and resumed as required during any phase or in between phases.
    • This program may be modified or terminated without prior notice.
    • The start and close of the rebate offer period for each phase, or any program pause or restart, will be announced by South Coast AQMD via eNewsletter and/or website notice(s).
    • Applications submitted beyond a rebate offer period, which could be after the end of a phase but prior to the start of the next phase, or during any program pause, may be denied.
    • Applications received during a rebate offer period, but which had no corresponding rebate issued due to a limitation of funding, may have priority consideration for earlier evaluation for a rebate in the next phase, provided the installation qualifies for a rebate in the next phase.
    • If program funding has been completely exhausted and no future phase will be developed, all unfunded applications will be denied.
  2. In order to be eligible for a rebate, the type of appliance must meet the qualified product criteria. Please check the website for details.
  3. The rebated appliance must replace a NOx-emitting furnace or water heater with equivalent function, unless South Coast AQMD provides a specific exemption for the application. The removed NOx-emitting appliance cannot be reinstalled in any location. South Coast AQMD reserves the right to reject an application if it is determined that the NOx-emitting appliance was not removed and/or that the NOx emitting appliance was reinstalled. The applicant will be required to repay the rebate in such instances.
  4. Applicants must timely obtain all required permits prior to the installation.
  5. Rebate applications must be complete, accurate, and include all required documentation. Applications are subject to verification and review for accuracy, including all necessary documentation.

Invoices provided by installers in rebate applications must match the invoices installers provide to property owners for all line items.

  11. Rebate amounts are subject to change and are capped at the total project cost when combined with other incentives. South Coast AQMD reserves the right to adjust rebate totals to ensure they do not exceed actual expenses. Rebates will be awarded based on the information in the application.
