In addition to the free kit offering, Washington Gas also provides rebates for qualifying high-efficiency natural gas equipment, including furnaces, boilers, water heaters, and other equipment designed to operate more efficiently than standard options. By choosing high-efficiency appliances, households may reduce energy consumption, enhance performance, and lower costs over time. To support these upgrades, rebates are available for eligible purchases and installations—making it more cost-effective to invest in equipment that may deliver long-term value.
Upgrading to high-efficiency natural gas equipment may contribute to greater reliability and consistent performance for essential home systems, including heating and hot water. For many Maryland households, these upgrades may also help extend the lifespan of major appliances, reducing the need for frequent replacements. The value of these rebates is not limited to the colder months – they’re available year-round. While high-efficiency furnaces and boilers play a key role in maintaining comfort during winter, equipment such as high efficiency water heaters and other qualifying equipment deliver benefits in every season, helping households manage energy use more effectively year-round.
Washington Gas encourages residents to review the eligibility requirements and rebate amounts before making a purchase. Details about the Home Energy Conservation Kit and the full list of qualifying appliances can be found on Maryland | Washington Gas Programs and Rebates.
Participation in these programs allows Maryland customers to take practical steps toward improving home efficiency, whether starting with simple weatherization measures from the free kit or investing in high-performance heating and water heating equipment.
