Irrigation systems, toilets, clothes washers, and dishwashers can use a lot of water, and older models don’t necessarily use it efficiently. Newer models can reduce water use up to 40%. For example, if you replace an old toilet with an EPA WaterSense model the average family would save money on their water bill and about 6,000 gallons of water annually. 

  • Bloomington water customers are encouraged to apply for a water bill rebate when they purchase:
  • WaterSense certified toilets, irrigation smart controllers, and sprinkler bodies.
  • Energy Star certified dishwashers and clothes washers,
  • Water saving rain barrels.
For more details, including how to apply, visit blm.mn/waterrebates or contact Public Works at ebiales@bloomingtonmn.gov or 952-563-8730.
