Homeowner checklist
- Confirm active SnoPUD electric account at the install address.
- Confirm this is a replacement, not new construction.
- Buy a model on the qualified list. See models checklist.
- Review location notes (ambient ~40°F+, noise, garage/basement often preferred) on the official page — hire a pro for fit assessment if unsure.
- Get permits. Hire licensed plumber / electrician when required. SnoPUD links DIY tips and plumbing permit info — still follow code.
- Submit rebate + receipts within 90 days of invoice. Keep copies in your rebate folder.
Hire licensed when required
Noise, cool exhaust air, and electrical capacity matter for HPWH placement. This desk does not teach DIY wiring or plumbing. Hire licensed trades when your permit or skill level requires it.
