Rebates
Early Retirement Rebate for Rooftop Units
(less than 20 years old; $100 per ton)
To verify the unit is in operating condition, energy
assessors working on behalf of Platte River or utilities
will note which units qualify for the early retirement
rebate in their assessment report. Units must be less
than 20 years old to qualify.
Evaporative Condensing
Evaporative condensing is a technology that pre-cools
the outside air entering the condenser of a rooftop
unit or condensing chiller with mist (water) or an
evaporative media. It lowers the entering temperature,
increasing efficiency and adding cooling capacity to
the unit.
Advanced Rooftop Unit Controller ($2,000 per unit)
The rebate is based on the number of controllers
installed. The majority of savings are achieved through
reduced supply fan speeds (about 80 percent of
total savings), followed by savings achieved from an
integrated economizer* and demand control ventilation.
Advanced Evaporative Cooling
Evaporative cooling works by evaporating water into
an air stream, which reduces the temperature but
increases humidity. Advanced evaporative coolers are
not the “swamp cooler” of yesteryear. They greatly
reduce energy consumption, while using water wisely
and maintaining air quality. Some can cool without
adding any humidity to the air. Evaporative cooling
is generally ideal for smaller buildings with little or no
ductwork as more airflow is necessary ­— it also can
supplement existing systems.
Premium Ventilation Package ($500 per unit)
This rebate is applied when a contractor or customer
is ordering a new rooftop unit and the incremental
cost is low enough to justify adding energy efficiency
controls. Savings are achieved through an integrated
economizer* and demand control ventilation.
