After toilets, washing machines are the second greatest water user in the typical North American household, accounting for 22% of indoor water use. High-efficiency clothes washing machines use 18 to 25 gallons per load as opposed to the 40 or more of a typical model.

Beginning August 1st, 2008, the James City Service Authority rebates Energy Star high-efficiency washing machines to reduce demand for municipal water and preserve its precious groundwater supply.

Apply to receive up to $150 for replacing your washing machine with an Energy Star high-efficiency washing machine. Please see rebate requirements for details.

Many developments have signed Water Conservation Agreements during the rezoning or special use permit process before construction could begin. If your development has signed one, then the agreement should be reflected as restrictions in your neighborhood rules and covenants. Please reference your neighborhood rules and covenants before pursuing any JCSA rebate. If you are required by your neighborhood covenant to fulfill any rebated actions, then you may not be eligible for that rebate. Please also check our list of Developments and Subdivisions to see if your development has signed a Water Conservation Agreement that should be reflected as requirements in your rules and covenants.
