The Queensland Government currently offers cash rebates up to $1500.00 for the purchase and installation at an existing dwelling of a rainwater tank of 3000 litre or larger which is plumbed to at least one internal connection such as a laundry or toilet. No rebates are able to be claimed when building a new house.
Only one rebate claim can be made for each property. Your Queenslander Tanks sales team can give you the details and assist you with the application. If you prefer, call 1800 243 585 or visit the Home WaterWise Rebate Scheme website at www.nrm.qld.gov.au
The Brisbane City Council currently offer rebates for water tanks that are plumbed into the home for internal use at existing homes. A rainwater tank of 5000 litres or greater attracts up to $1,150.00 (Pensioner $1,250.00) rebate and a 3000 litre tank attracts a $900.00 (Pensioner $1000.00) rebate. The tank must be installed by 30 June 2008 to be eligible. The Brisbane City Council's rebate can be claimed in addition to the Queensland Governments rebate.
Full details are available from Queenslander Tanks who can offer installation by licenced plumbers to meet the Councils requirements. If you prefer, call the Brisbane City Council on (07) 3403 8888 or visit the website at www.brisbane.qld.gov.au
