WashWise - Washing Machine Rebate ProgramWashWise is a collaboration of Pacific Northwest electric, gas, water and wastewater utilities who have joined together to promote resource efficient washers in retail stores in Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana. The general goals of WashWise are to dramatically increase the market share of resource efficient washers in the program area and to influence the development and support of maximum energy and water efficiency levels for revised federal clothes washer standards. If you purchase a qualified WashWise washing machine and you are a water customer of Soos Creek, you are eligible for a $100 cash rebate. All rebates will be mailed to you in the form of a check from Seattle Public Utilities. It's easy for participants to receive a cash rebate for a resource efficient washer. A WashWise rebate form will be given to the purchaser by the retailer, along with a copy of the purchase receipt. Submit one copy of the rebate form and receipt to: Seattle Public Utilities Resource Conservation Office Attn: Billie Fisher, Program Assistant 710 2nd Avenue, Room 505 Seattle, WA 98104 The participant will then receive a check for the proper rebate amount within 30 days. To date, over 300 Soos Creek water customers have taken advantage of the WashWise washing machine rebate. If you are thinking about purchasing a new washing machine and you are a water customer of the District, we encourage you to purchase a qualified WashWise machine Water Supply Update and Water Conservation TipsSince last October, we have experienced extremely dry weather. The snow pack and reservoir levels are below what they normally are at this time of the year. Until we have measurable improvement in the reservoir or snow pack situation, a tight water situation may potentially exist this summer and/or fall. Conserving now helps to better ensure that we will have enough water to carry us through the hot dry months of July, August and September. If everyone starts conserving today, we greatly reduce the possibility for steep reductions later in the year. The following conservation tips help water supply, the environment and your pocketbook.
