Irrigation rebates in Colorado
5 programs in Colorado pay residents for irrigation upgrades. 4 list themselves as open now, and the median maximum is $300 per household.
These programs cover part or all of the cost of a weather-based or soil-moisture controller, a drip conversion, rotary nozzles or a rain sensor. Most require a WaterSense-labeled product and a receipt, and some send a technician to install it for free.
