City of Perry Offers
$l5O to Assist in Gas
Water Heating
Conversions
The City of Perry is encouraging
its natural gas customers to use gas as
an energy source for water heating.
The City is offering a rebate program
that will pay $l5O to gas customers
who convert their electric water
heaters to natural gas waterheaters.
Harold Deal, the city's utility
supervisor, explains why gas water
heating is an attractive proposition for
customers and the city. "Our natural
gas system is used at its peak during
the winter months when heating
requirements are at the highest. Gas
water heating offers the solution of
year-round gas load and better use of
the City's gas system. The customer
benefits because of savings through
much lower energy bills." Deal
continues, "One need only look at
appliance "Energy Guide" labels
required by federal law to notice the
difference in operating costs."
The city has special brochures that
feature a sample energy guide label
comparing the cost of operating an
electric water heater vs. a gas water
heater of comparable size and
capacity. According to the labels, the
annual cost to operate the electric
water heater is $421 while the annual
cost to operate the gas water heater is
$157. The difference is $264, which
adds up to $2,640 in savings over ten
years. Deal also offers details about
the rebate program and explains how
to be eligible to collect $l5O. "The
program is really simple. Many of our
gas customers currently use electricity
to heat their household water. We're
so convinced natural gas is the best
energy source for heating water, we're
willing to assist financially in the
conversion. Right now, when a
customer converts an electric water
heater to a natural gas water heater,
we'll write you a check for $l5O to
help cover the cost. "
Rodney Dill is the local sales
representative for the Municipal Gas
Authority of Georgia, the
organization helping to sponsor the
Perry rebate program. According to
Dill, the city will begin distributing
information bags to its gas customers.
These bags will contain information
on the benefits of natural gas water
heating and details about the rebate
program. "We're doing our best to get
the word out," Dill says. "We feel that
this is an effective way to get all the
necessary information into the
customers' hands, we hope to help as
many customers as possible with this
program. People are surprised to see
how easy it works and how easy it is
to pick up a check. When you add the
$l5O in cash to around $250 a year
savings on energy bills, the
conversion means that families can
save S4OO the first year. We've even
found in cases of older electric
models first year savings totaling over
$500."
Dill says the program means more
than saving money. "Our largest
response comes because natural gas
appliances usually provide a pay-back
period. In fact, because the cost of
natural gas is lower than the cost of
electricity, conversion to a natural gas
water heater will provide a quick pay
back, normally within two years."
Dill adds, "Gas water heating also
offers a quicker recovery time,
meaning there will be more hot water
available for household needs.
Another tremendous benefit is that
during an electrical power outage a
natural gas water heater continues to
supply hot water. That's a comforting
thought on a cold winter day."
According to Harold Deal, "As we
progress toward winter, the demand
for gas service will be at its heaviest.
Now is the best time to schedule all
types of gas hook-ups and
installations." Deal says the program
is a limited time offer and that those
who are interested should come by
the utility department or call 987-
1911 for more program details.
