Each year, Bartholomew County REMC offers member incentives designed to assist you in purchasing high-efficiency heating, cooling or water-heating equipment. The program is re-evaluated every year. If you have installed, or plan to replace any HVAC equipment or a water heater in 2017, please notify us with the appropriate information so that we can get the incentive to you. Proof-of-purchase, along with the brand name, model number and serial number must be provided.

Don’t forget to recycle your old refrigerator or freezer and receive $50! Visit www.bcremc.com/incentives for a full list of 2017 incentives, including discounted lighting.

For those who installed a geothermal system in 2016, a tax credit is still available. IRS Tax Form 5695 will need to be filed along with your 2016 tax returns to receive a 30 percent tax credit. Visit www.energystar.gov and use “tax credits” in the search bar or inform your tax consultant of any changes you may have made to your home.
