Commercial Rebate Program Closed on March 31, 2026

Commercial rebates will relaunch in the spring/summer. All rebates require a consultation or pre-inspection meeting. Do not start work on your project without contacting the Water Conservation Office. Projects completed without a "Notice to Proceed" may not be eligible for a rebate.

Residential Grass Removal Rebate Closed on Oct. 31, 2025, and other Residential Removal Rebates closed on March 31, 2026

The residential grass removal rebate received extraordinary participation this program year. Scottsdale Water is excited residents are converting grass to an Arizona-friendly landscape. Grass and pool removal and Smart Home Water Monitor rebates will return when the new rebate season launches.

Applied for a rebate before the deadline? All documents uploaded using the secure link in your most recent email correspondence will be reviewed within two business weeks.

Do not begin the removal process before the program reopens and you have received a Notice to Proceed. Per ordinance, all removal rebates require a pre-inspection before removal. Scottsdale Water cannot guarantee rebate requirements, eligibility, or amount for the residential removal rebates until the program relaunches.

How to prepare for qualifying for the next grass removal rebate season

For a general reference of the upcoming residential grass removal rebate program requirements, you can view the previous application and make your plan. New program requirements are still being reviewed but are anticipated to be similar to last year's application.

If you are not doing the landscape conversion work yourself, Conservation recommends receiving more than one bid. Yards must be maintained even if a rebate is planned.

Why Rebates?

Scottsdale Water is committed to a permanent reduction in water usage while also keeping in mind the Scottsdale General Plan 2035 goals on water efficiency. Rebates are evaluated each year for efficacy and performance and are tailored to the highest water uses in the Scottsdale Water service area. By incentivizing efficiency, Scottsdale Water aims to conserve its water supply while also preserving the natural beauty of the Sonoran Desert.

Newest Offerings + WaterSmart

Scottsdale will be offering the Smart Home Water Monitor and the Water Management and Efficiency Technology rebates, designed so customers can be more efficient at monitoring and managing their water use in real or near-real time. This technology is especially helpful in identifying leaks, which waste both water and money and potentially cause costly infrastructure damage to homes, buildings, sidewalks and/or streets.

Did you know Scottsdale Water continues to install Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) technology? With AMI, customers can dive deeper into their water use by logging into the WaterSmart portal, available through your Online Utility Account. Customers with hourly data can even receive leak notifications. Sign up for WaterSmart and see if hourly use is available in your area.

Important Notice:

Scottsdale Water continuously reviews the water savings performance of each rebate and offered single-family residential toilet rebates from 1992 to 2023. We have found most toilet replacements occur at homes with existing high-efficiency toilets rather than replacing older, less efficient models. Since the residential toilet/urinal rebates were no longer statistically significant in water savings, these two rebates were discontinued. We encourage you to consider applying for other available rebates.
