Multi-Family Toilet Replacement Program
Apartment complexes and multifamily properties that are customers of Austin Water Utility or a
qualifying water district are eligible to receive rebates for up to three water efficient
toilets per living unit through our Toilet Replacement Program. You must agree to replace all eligible toilets in a building
or property to participate. Participants may choose the Free Toilet
or Toilet Rebate option.
(Duplex, triplex and fourplex properties should fill out the
RESIDENTIAL Toilet Program Application.)
The Free Toilet Program offers round-bowl Niagara Ecologic HETs -- high-efficiency toilets that use only 1.28 gallons per flush.
Elongated-bowl, 17" ADA toilets are available for an additional
charge of $21.10+ tax per toilet, payable to the supplier at pickup. Additionally,
a $60 per toilet installation rebate is available when toilets are installed by a licensed plumber. ($60 rebate valid for installations on or after 7/4/08, earlier installations rebated at $30)
The Free Toilet Program requires pre-application and approval before old toilets are removed. For
details, please see application and guidelines.
The Toilet Rebate Program offers rebates for qualifying tank-type toilet replacements, up to the maximum per-toilet amounts below.
New toilets must be certified under EPA's WaterSense labeling program.
Only WaterSense toilets are eligible for rebates. The Toilet Rebate Program requires pre-application before old toilets are removed to make
sure both the property and the new toilet models qualify.
- Replacing pre-1996 toilets with qualifying HET models -- up to $200 rebate per toilet
- Replacing 1.6 gpf toilets with qualifying HETs -- up to $50 rebate per toilet
- Installing HETs in new construction -- up to $50 rebate per toilet
Rebates for 1.6 gallon toilets have been discontinued. For rebates on purchases made before 10/31/2008, please call 974-2199.
