$500 rebates for energy efficient furnaces

Reported by the WRA:

The governor's office has set up a toll-free hot line for consumers seeking information about the state's new furnace rebate program. Gov. M. Jodi Rell said Thursday that, beginning next week, residents who call the hot line at 1-866-940-4676 can leave their name, mailing address and phone number and receive program application materials in the mail. The State Bond Commission recently authorized $5 million to provide rebates of up to $500 for homeowners who replace their furnaces with more efficient models.
