PAGE 45 SCHEDULE APR APPLIANCE REBATE (Effective 10/7/92) Application/Program Summary The City of Denton Utility Department is offering cash payments to customers who purchase and install high efficiency air conditioners or heat pumps in new or existing residential or commercial facilities. The program's objective is to reduce energy demand and con- sumption, thereby saving customers dollars on their utility bills and reducing the peak load of the City of Denton's electric system. Program Guidelines 1 All installations must be for accounts served by the City of Denton Utility Department and must meet all applicable national, local, and manufacturers' codes and specifica- tions. 2. To qualify for a rebate, equipment must be new when in- stalled. 3. All equipment must be purchased No leased or lease/ purchased equipment will qualify for a cash rebate 4. Installations must be made by licensed contractors and/or dealers 5. No rebate will be paid on a partial replacement of an air conditioner The compressor, condenser and the evapora- tor coil must be replaced to qualify for a rebate 6 Payments for residential central cooling systems, which include apartments and mobile homes, will be limited to a capacity based on a minimum of 500 conditioned square feet per ton. 7. The conditioned area in square feet is required on each residential central system request for payment 8 The rebate will be paid to the purchaser of the qualify- ing equipment upon verification of compliance with program guidelines. 9. Requests for payment must be received by the Director of Electric Utilities within 60 days of installation. PAGE 46 10. Equipment and installation are subject to inspection by the City's Building Inspection Department before final approval for payment is issued. 11. The Appliance Rebate Program guidelines and payments are subject to change without notice. 12. The Appliance Rebate Program may be discontinued without prior notice at any time by the City of Denton. I. GENERAL PROCEDURES A Application To determine who qualifies for a rebate, an appli- cation for rebate must be completed and sent to the Director of Electric Utilities within 60 days of installation of the equipment Participating dealers have rebate application forms and will com,)lete these forms for the purchaser It is the purchaser's responsibility to see that the dealer completes the form and submits it to the Director of 'lectric Utilities B Inspections Installations of central systems will be inspected by the City's Building Inspection Department and must be approved before rebates will be processed. C. Payments to Participants Cash payments will be made to the purchaser of the qualifying equipment. Participating retail equip- ment dealers will receive a cash payment of $20 per unit for the sale of window units, central air conditioning systems, or heat pumps to offset their cost for properly filling out the applications for purchasers. Program participants are responsible for submitting the correct information. The Utili- ty Department will not issue any additional payment unless the payment was incorrect due to a mistake in processing by a City employee 1 The twenty dollar ($20.00) payments to dealers will be made only if they supply the qualify- ing equipment to the customer or builder who is paying for the installation of the equip- ment. Dealers and purchasers may be denied payment for failure to follow program guide- lines such as. failing to supply correct square footage or SEER/EER figures; installing equipment which is not new; replacing part of PAGE 47 a split system; or failure to fill out rebate forms properly 2. Payments will be made to customers who pur- chase and install new qualifying equipment. If a tenant purchases and installs qualifying equipment, the payment is made to the tenant. If the owner of rental property purchases and installs qualifying equipment, the payment is made to the owner. If the purchaser of a mobile or custom home selects and pays for a qualifying unit, the purchaser will receive the rebate II. CENTRAL ELECTRIC AIR CONDITIONERS AND HEAT PUMPS A A new condensing unit with an inside evaporator coil will qualify if matched, as specified, in the current issue of the ARI Directory of Certified Air Conditioners and Air Source Heat Pumps and the unit meets the minimum ratings as specified in the 1992 Appliance Rebate Program. If the unit is not in the current ARI Directory, the manufacturer's latest data approved for publication will be ac- cepted If the unit is not in the current ARI Directory or data approved for publication, the average of the high and low SEER/EER coil only, not including blower coil, will be accepted as listed in the current ARI Directory. B. Computer simulations may be used if ratings are not listed in the current ARI Directory, provided the following criteria are met. 1. Systems using mix -matched coils must meet all established program guidelines to qualify for a rebate. 2. The computer simulations must be signed, certified, and dated by a registered profes- sional engineer and an officer of the company making the submittal 3. The engineer who certifies a simulation must attest to the accuracy of the input data, the validity of the calculation procedure used, and that the results are in accordance with D O.E. approved methodology. 4. A complete set of the input data and an indi- cation of the source of the data must accompa- ny the simulated ratings PAGE 48 A 5 The simulated ratings must be based on the condensing unit's tested combination as listed in the current ARI Directory or latest data approved for publication and identified by the correct model numbers of both the condensing unit and coil as listed in the current ARI Directory. 6. Simulated ratings must not exceed 10 of the SEER rating of the tested system used as a base. 7. An open file of computer simulations will be maintained at the Energy Management Office Supplying erroneous ratings or data can lead to disqualification of those involved from further program participation Program Capacity and Payment Formula 1 The maximum allowable BTU per hour capacity eligible for a residential rebate is deter- mined by dividing the square footage of the conditioned area by 500 and multiplying by 12,000. Example The Program Capacity for a 1,500 square foot house is• 1,500 = 3 0 x 12,000 = 36,000 BTUH 500 The City will pay a rebate on a unit that meets program efficiency standards and is sized at 36,000 BTUH or less. 2. Actual payment will be determined by dividing the BTUH of the installed unit (up to, and including the Program Capacity) by 12,000 and multiplying by the incentive The incentive amounts and SEER ratings are refer- enced on page 5 and are incorporated herein as if fully set forth at length• Example A• A person in a 1,500 square foot house installs a 30,000 BTUH central air conditioner with a SEER rating of 12.0. 1.500 = 3 x 12,000 = 36,000 Program Capacity 500 PAGE 49 30.000 = 2.5 x $100/ton = $250.00 Rebate Amount 12,000 Example B: A person in a 2,000 square foot house installs a 60,000 BTUH central air conditioner with a SEER rating of 12.0. 2,000 = 4 x 12,000 = 48,000 Program Capacity 500 48.000 = 4 x $100/ton = $400 Rebate Amount 12,000 Example C: A person in a 2,000 square foot house installs a 60,000 BTUH central heat pump with a SEER rating of 12.0. 2.000 = 4 x 12,000 = 48,000 Program Capacity 500 48,000 = 4 x $100/ton = $400 Rebate Amount Minimum SEER/EER Central Air Conditio in Ratina Incentive Single Phase (SEER) 12.0 $100/ton*t Three Phase (EER) 12.0 $100/ton Central Heat Pumps Single Phase (SEER) 12.0 $100/ton Three Phase (EER) 12.0 $100/ton Room Air Conditioners 10.0 $ 50/unit Room Heat Pumps 10.0 $ 50/unit Geothermal Heat Pumps 12.0 $500/unit * Refer to 111992 Appliance Rebate Program.
