After installation

  • Contact the dealer that installed the water heater(s) to inquire if their company is submitting the rebate on your behalf, on CenterPoint Energy's dealer-only online rebate form.
  • If your dealer doesn't submit rebates in the dealer-only processing system, then the dealer should generate a paper rebate submission for you.
  • Provide your email address to the dealer if you want to receive system generated emails about the status of your rebate submission.

Step 3: Rebate Processing

  • Rebate application must be submitted in the same calendar year that the equipment was installed. See Terms and Conditions for complete information about the rebate deadline.
  • New Construction rebates are put on a 60 day hold prior to processing for High Efficiency Home program verification. If the home completed the High Efficiency Home program, no rebate will be paid.
  • From the time that CenterPoint Energy receives the completed rebate application please allow up to 12 weeks for rebate to be processed.
