Save energy, water and money when you buy a
qualifying dishwasher or clothes washer
That 10-year-old machine in your kitchen or laundry room uses far more energy and water than today's super-efficient dishwashers and clothes washers. Conserving energy and water is important to living wisely in the desert.
In addition, you can save on your electric and water bills just by replacing your older dishwasher or clothes washer. And now, for a short time, SRP customers can receive a $20 to $75 rebate toward the purchase of super-efficient appliances.

Clothes Washer Ratings:
- MEF: The Modified Energy Factor (MEF) measures energy consumption of the total laundry cycle, including drying. The higher the number, the greater the energy efficiency.
- WF: The Water Factor (WF) represents the number of gallons of water needed for each cubic foot of laundry. The lower the number, the more efficient the water use.
Dishwasher Rating:
- EF: The Energy Factor (EF) reflects the number of cycles per kilowatt-hour (kWh). The higher the number, the more efficient the dishwasher.
These super-efficient appliances are defined as the upper end of the ENERGY STAR® spectrum, based on their superior energy efficiency ratings. Some appliances may carry the ENERGY STAR label, but not all ENERGY STAR appliances qualify for this rebate. See the list of qualifying appliances for details:
