About The Government Air Conditioning Rebate NSW – Aircon Rebate NSW

Benefits of Participating in the NSW ESS Aircon Rebate

Participating in the NSW ESS offers many benefits for both households and businesses:

Financial Incentives:

Eligible NSW ESS Aircon Rebate participants can access rebates and financial incentives. These will substantially help offset the costs of purchasing and installing new energy-efficient air-conditioning. The rebate is available for both upgrades and new installations.

Energy Cost Savings:

As we mentioned earlier, even reducing the use of your air-conditioner by 1 hour a day is not enough to keep on top of rising electricity costs. If you’re also using an old inefficient energy-intensive one, you may well have to cut your current use even more to avoid a soaring power bill!

Modern, energy-efficient air-conditioners use much less electricity than older models because they are designed to optimise both performance and energy use. The result is better efficiency, less power wastage, a healthier bank account, and a greener environment.

Environmental Impact:

Every energy-efficient piece of equipment installed under the ESS contributes to lowering energy consumption and reducing greenhouse gases, helping to mitigate climate change and meet environmental sustainability targets.

Aircon NSW Rebate Application Process

Applying for the Aircon Rebate NSW under the ESS involves several key steps:

1. Contact accredited suppliers (ACPs) in your area to determine eligibility, help you research equipment, and provide quotes. The ACP will help you choose an approved air conditioner that best suits your requirements.
2. Appoint an ACP like Efficient Energy Group BEFORE work begins on your installation AND sign the rebate nomination form PRIOR to completion of the installation. Failure to do this means the work will be classed as ‘previously completed work’ and won’t be eligible for the rebate.
3. Contract a licensed air conditioning and refrigeration contractor to carry out the work. The contractor must also remove and dispose of your old air conditioner. Note: this contractor must be an HEER (Home Energy Efficiency Retrofit) approved installer.
   
   
   

   To check your eligibility for the NSW Energy Savings Scheme (ESS) Air Conditioning Rebate through Efficient Energy Group or any similar accredited provider, you would typically need to follow a process similar to the one outlined below. Please note that while this provides a general guide, specific steps may vary depending on the provider’s procedures and the current details of the program.

   Steps to Check Eligibility through Efficient Energy Group
   Visit the Provider’s Website: Start by visiting the Efficient Energy Group’s website or the website of the accredited provider you’re interested in. Look for sections dedicated to the NSW Energy Savings Scheme (ESS) or air conditioning rebates.

   Find the Eligibility Checker: Many providers offer an online eligibility checker tool. This tool asks you to input details about your property, your current air conditioning system (if any), and other relevant information to determine if you qualify for the rebate.

   Contact Customer Service: If you cannot find an online tool or prefer personal assistance, look for the provider’s contact information on their website. You can reach out via phone or email to inquire about checking your eligibility for the air conditioning rebate.

   Provide Required Information: Whether using an online tool or speaking with a representative, you’ll likely need to provide specific information about your residency, the type of property you own or rent, and your current air conditioning system. This may include your address, the type of air conditioning unit you’re considering for installation or upgrade, and whether you’re a tenant or property owner.

   Review Terms and Conditions: Ensure you understand the terms and conditions associated with the ESS Air Conditioning Rebate, including any obligations on your part, such as the need for landlord approval if you’re a tenant.

   Submit an Inquiry or Application: Depending on the provider’s process, you may be able to submit an inquiry directly through their website or be guided to complete an application form. This form might be available online or provided to you by the customer service representative.

   Additional Steps
   Consultation: Some providers may offer a consultation service to help you choose the most appropriate energy-efficient air conditioning system for your needs and to guide you through the application process.

   Documentation: Be prepared to gather and submit any required documentation, such as proof of residence, ownership or tenancy agreement, and details of the proposed air conditioning unit.

   By following these steps with Efficient Energy Group or your chosen accredited provider, you can determine your eligibility for the NSW ESS Air Conditioning Rebate and take the next steps towards applying for the rebate and making energy-efficient upgrades to your property.
