There are a number of rebates available to assist you when purchasing new Natural Gas appliances.
Eligible businesses in the Botany Bay, Canterbury, Hurstville, Marrickville or Rockdale Council areas will receive one-off rebates of $500 ($700 for low income earners or pensioners) if they replace their old solid fuel heaters with an approved new cleaner heating alternative.
By choosing Natural Gas you can maintain the ambience and warmth of your current solid fuel heater without the hassle. For more information visit www.rta.nsw.gov.au/environment/airquality/solidfuel_buyback.html
If you replace your electric hot water system with a Natural Gas system and meet the criteria, the NSW Government will provide you with a $300 rebate. While the Government provides more money for other systems such as solar, Natural Gas produces the same amount of greenhouse gas emissions and is more cost effective to install than other options. The ultimate green option is to use Natural Gas boosted by solar, in which you can claim $1,200.
