How To Get a Rebate on a Qualifying Gas Storage Water Heater
Look for PSE&G signage on eligible equipment while shopping at participating retailers. You can apply for a rebate in either of the following ways:
- Post-purchase rebate: You can purchase a qualifying gas storage water heater from any retailer and submit a rebate form online. Your rebate claim must be submitted within 120 days of purchase.
- Instant rebate (tier 1 gas storage water heaters only): Verify your eligibility at instantrebates.pseg.com to receive an instant rebate coupon you can use either in-store at the register or during online checkout when you shop at The Home Depot or Lowe’s .
Instant rebate coupons used in-store or online are only valid in New Jersey. Water heaters purchased from The Home Depot or Lowe’s with an instant rebate coupon are not eligible for an additional post-purchase rebate.
