Commercial Washer Rebate

We are offering rebates of  $500 per commercial high-efficiency clothes washer with a water factor of 4.5 or below.

The Commercial Washer Rebate Program is for the purchase and installation of commercial grade clothes washers only.  For multi-family accounts, washers must be installed in a common area. Residential grade machines are not eligible to receive a rebate through this program.


You are eligible for a rebate if:

  • The property where the clothes washer is installed has an active commercial or multi-family SFPUC water service account.
  • You have not received a washer rebate from us in the past 10 years.  Previously rebated machines will only be eligible for replacement rebate if they have been in place for a minimum of 10 years.

Steps to Apply

  1. Verify that you have purchased a qualifying 2022-23 Energy Star Most Efficient clothes washer. 
  2. Read the application directions and program rules  before proceeding to the online portal
  3. Register the water account with our online Water Conservation Application System. To register, you will need the ten-digit Water Service Account Number and the account service address zip code.
  4. Apply for your commercial clothes washer rebate online by clicking "APPLY NOW" under the Commercial Clothes Washer Rebate icon and filling out the application.
