Hi Mary, sadly we don't offer fridge recycling. We suggest earth911.com as a starting point if you're looking to recycle a refrigerator.

Energy Trust recently began offering incentives for central air conditioning. Visit the central air conditioners page on our website for details.

Energy Trust doesn’t provide incentives for siding. We focus on improvements that will save energy in your home. Assistance may be available for low-income qualified customers through the Oregon Housing and Community Services and organized by county. Please visit the OHCS web pages (https://www.oregon.gov/ohcs/Pages/low-income-energy-assistance-oregon.aspx) for details.

Blue Raven Solar is a trade ally of Energy Trust. That means they are licensed to do business in Oregon and also maintain appropriate levels of insurance. We maintain a rating of one to three starts for each of our trade allies who install Solar. The ratings are based on our experiences with that particular contractor. You can see Blue Raven’s rating on our find-a-contractor list.

Thanks for your question. Both tank and tankless water heaters can be efficient. Energy and cost savings depend on many factors, like the number of people in your household, your hot water usage habits and efficiency of the model you purchase. Tankless water heaters save energy by only heating water only when it’s needed, instead of keeping a heated tank on standby throughout the day. They often benefit homes with fewer occupants. There are also high efficiency tank models, such as heat pump water heaters, which use ambient heat around the unit to heat water. They benefit homes with more occupants who may need hot water on a more variable schedule throughout the day. Energy Trust provides instant discounts for qualified high efficiency gas and electric tank water heaters at retail stores.

Thanks for checking with us! Sadly we don't offer fridge recycling. We suggest http://search.earth911.com/ as a starting point. We’re happy to help with other questions about Energy Trust incentives or services.

Energy monitors, like the Kill-A-Watt Monitor, are a great way to learn how much energy is used by individual appliances and electronic devices in your home. Kill-A-Watt monitors may be purchased at many retailers, or checked-out from most public libraries. Visit the Kill-A-Watt Monitor page on our website for more information.

The answer will depend on if youre talking about residential or commercial. But in either case, the Energy Trust of Oregon website is the best place to start and find more information.

One of our trade ally contractors may be able to help you. Visit www.energytrust.org/find-a-contractor. You can sort by Solar and zip code. Thanks
