Discounted Clothes Washer

On average, a high-efficiency Energy Star clothes washer uses 30% less water and 20% less energy than a regular washer. Through our partnership with the Sonora Environmental Research Institute (SERI), qualifying Tucson Water customers can upgrade their washers and conserve water. Sonora Environmental Research Institute will screen customers and coordinate installation of clothes washer on behalf of Tucson Water.

Program Details

Customers can purchase a washer for $200, including installation. Participants may also be eligible to receive a zero-interest loan that can breakdown into a $50 down payment upon approval and a six month payment plan for $25 per month. Customers may choose from a top load or a front load option and SERI will purchase and arrange delivery and installation. Participants will not be able to choose a brand or model.
