Winter Park’s residential duct-repair rebate begins with a completed home energy audit. The City’s program says the audit must recommend the duct repair; arranging work first is not the sequence described for the incentive. Energy program

Check the utility account, not just the address

The City offers conservation programs to its electric and water customers. For this home energy audit and duct-repair path, confirm that the account is with Winter Park’s electric utility before assuming a Winter Park mailing address qualifies. City rebate directory

Keep the relevant account details private when requesting help. The purpose is to establish the provider and program, not to post a bill online.

Carry the recommendation into the work scope

Use a short project file with four parts:

  1. The completed energy audit and date.
  2. The audit’s actual duct-repair recommendation.
  3. A written repair scope that can be matched to that recommendation.
  4. The program’s current submission and bill-credit instructions.

Ask about eligible costs and required proof before authorizing work. An audit recommendation and a contractor’s proposal may describe different scopes; reconcile that difference before assuming the whole proposal qualifies.

Understand the form of the benefit

The program lists 50% of duct-repair cost, up to $300, issued as a Winter Park electric utility bill credit—not a check to the homeowner. Keep that payment form separate from the contractor’s payment terms. Duct-repair rebate conditions

This guide does not determine a particular project’s rebate or predict energy savings. A completed audit is an eligibility step, not proof that every proposed repair will receive a credit. Confirm current program availability and requirements directly, and retain the eventual utility decision with the project records.
