Appliances must be purchased after January 1, 2023. The “Appliance Rebate” form must be filled out and signed. A copy of the sales receipt, with the appliance highlighted or circled must be submitted. This information can be mailed to or dropped off at our Mansfield office. The rebate will be applied to the member’s account. Multiple appliance rebates will be accepted per voting member, with the total rebate not to exceed $200 with the exception of an electric vehicle.

Electric Vehicle Rebate
Electric vehicle must be 100% electric and purchased new after January 1, 2023. The rebate form will be included in one of the monthly bills and will also be printed in Penn Lines and available on our web site.

This program is not considered any kind of warranty or guarantee for the appliances purchased. It will only be valid provided the requirements listed in this document are met. The rebates will be given on a first-come basis and limited by the amount of LEEP funds we receive from PREA. The rebate program will end when all funds have been given out as rebates and the balance is zero.
