1. Why must the window treatments be shades or thin films to qualify for the rebate?

Thin films and shades provide a cost-effective solution in reducing the amount of heat that penetrates through a glass window and therefore will reduce your cooling load. This in turn reduces the electric cost of running an air conditioner. Some good side effects are that they block some of the suns light and darken a room and often reduce glare. Some window films can reduce harmful UV rays that can fade carpet and furniture.

2. How much is the rebate?

The rebate is $0.50 per square foot. So, if you have a standard 77 inch by 80 inch window facing west, then you would get a rebate for $21.39.
