The City of Winter Haven is currently offering a rebate to replace high-flow toilets using 3.5 gallons or more per flush with 1.28 gallons per flush WaterSense® toilets.

Qualifications:

• Active City of Winter Haven Water Utility customer
• Toilet being replaced is 3.5 gallons per flush or greater (If home was built before 1994, and the toilet has not been replaced since 1995, then toilets will qualify)
• Old toilet(s) will not be re-installed at any location, and will be rendered unusable or disposed of
• New toilet is a 1.28 gallons per flush WaterSense® labeled toilet
• Limit 2 toilets per household for residential

How to tell whether your toilet qualifies for the rebate:

• If your home was built in or before 1989, and no one has installed new toilets since, then your toilets are high-flow and qualify.
• If your home was built in or after 1995, or you purchased and installed new toilets in or after 1995, then your toilets are already low-flow and do not qualify.
• If your home was built in 1990-1994, or if you installed toilets in those years, or you don't know whether new toilets have been installed, look at the toilet to determine whether it's high or low flow:
• Look right behind the seat hinge on the bowl to see if there is a label with the gpflisted.
  • If the gpf is 3.5, 5, or 7, then your toilet is high-flow and qualifies.
  • If the gpf is 1.6 or 1.28 then your toilet is low-flow and does not qualify.
  • If there is no gpf listed, go to the next step.
• Take the tank lid off and check the inside back of the toilet tank for the manufacture's date stamp, which is usually stamped directly into the porcelain.
  • If the year is 1989 or before then your toilet qualifies.
  • If the year is 1990-1994, and there are no other marks on the toilet to indicate gallons per flush or gpf, then the toilet qualifies.
  • If the year is 1995 - present, then your toilet is low-flow and does not qualify.
