Congratulations to the P.O.U.R. Program's 2025 winner: Christina & Ricky Friesen! The Friesens won a $500 credit on their utility bill by installing an approved water reducing appliance in their home!
Want to know how you can participate in this year's program?
The annual P.O.U.R. Program is a water conservation initiative for customers receiving Town water service who choose to install approved fixtures or appliances which reduce the amount of water consumed.
Eligible fixtures and appliances are:
β WaterSense certified toilet.
β Water pressure reducers
β Energy Star certified washing machines
β Energy Star certified dishwashers
β Energy Star certified water heaters
Residential Customers
If you install water efficient fixtures or appliances before December 31 of this year, you may qualify for a credit of $100 on your Town utility bill (Note: There is a limitation of one credit of $100 per year per address). Additionally, each upgrade entitles you to one entry in a draw for a credit of $500 on your Town utility bill. All water consumption reducing installations must be for the current year and must be completed prior to December 31 to qualify.
Commercial Customers
If you install between one and ten water efficient fixtures or appliances before December 31, you will qualify for a credit of $100 on your Town utility bill. Each replacement of one to ten units will qualify your business for a $100 credit (i.e. sixteen WaterSense certified toilets installed = $200 utility account credit).
