Pinellas County Utlilities
Ultra Low Flow Toilet (ULFT) Rebate Program

Does Your Castle STILL Need a New Throne?

By popular demand, the Ultra Low Flow Toilet (ULFT) program is returning for an additional two year engagement. Since the original program started in August, 2001, the program successfully achieved 98 percent of the participation goal, saving approximately 2.5 million gallons of potable water per day. There were 91,171 high-flow toilets replaced with low-flow models during a six year period.

Prior to the original program’s end in September, 2007, an average of 835 rebates were issued per month. Retail and wholesale customers were eligible for rebates of up to $100 for each toilet replaced.

Program Coordinator Barbara Born reports that continuation of the program will cost $2,872,000 for two years, and the Southwest Water Management District will continue joint funding at a 50% match of eligible program costs. The program’s extension will help further decrease Pinellas County’s already low per capita water use rate of 89 gallons per person per day.
