Save up to $800 on your next AC Unit or Heat Pump
Homeowners and small businesses who are customers of Garland Power & Light and concerned about spending too much on heating and cooling are cordially invited to take advantage of a program by Garland Power & Light called the Central Air Conditioning & Heat Pump Program. This program pays bill credits to encourage customers to install energy-efficient heating and cooling systems.
Requirements
Homeowners who are interested in the program must send their applications on or before September 30, 2014. GP&L may also be forced to discontinue the program before September 30 to meet funding requirements. To ensure the program is still available, you can call GP&L at (972) 205-2929.
— All homeowners must obtain a permit from the City of Garland prior to switching out their old air conditioning and heating systems, regardless of whether or not they participate in the Central Air Conditioning & Heat Pump Program.
— New installations must take place within the service area of GP&L. Customers must also be served by GP&L.
— The program is limited to existing businesses and homes.
— Applications are subject to approval and verification. In the event that an application cannot be verified, GP&L will be unable to issue credits.
