Residential Conservation Rebates
Residential Conservation Rebates
Using water wisely is a way of life in California and the Santa Clarita Valley. While rain and show provided significant water throughout the state and the SCV early in 2023, consecutive, multi-year drought and existing impacts on our groundwater supplies will take time to build back our banked reserves for future dry years.
Did you know? More than half of an average home’s water use is outdoors – and up to half of that is wasted. Saving water starts at home and SCV Water is here to help you save water and money! Small changes can add up to big water savings. To increase your water-use efficiency, take advantage of our rebate programs.
