North Shore Gas - Chicagoland Natural Gas Savings Program

Summary

North Shore Gas offers the Chicagoland Natural Gas Savings Program to help their customers to purchase energy efficient equipment. Homeowners, landlords and small business owners are eligible for rebates on energy efficient furnaces, boilers, water heaters, insulation, and clothes washers. To qualify, gas furnaces, boilers, and water heaters must be installed by professional contractors. Property owners may opt to self-install insulation and clothes washers or hire a professional contractor. A full list of eligible models and insulation and instructions on how to apply for the rebates can be found on the Chicagoland Natural Gas Savings Program website. Applications must be made no later than 60 days after the equipment purchase date or by May 31, 2009, whichever comes first. The Chicagoland Natural Gas Savings Program is funded by customers of North Shore Gas, through a line item on the bill called the Enhanced Efficiency Program. The Program is guided by North Shore Gas, the Citizen's Utility Board, the City of Chicago Department of Environment, the Environmental Law and Policy Center, and the Illinois Attorney General's Office.
