Fulton County renews funding for toilet rebate programs

Toilet rebate programs began in metro Atlanta in 2008 to help encourage residents to have the most efficient, and water-saving toilets in their homes. According to Fulton County, “over 135,000 old, inefficient toilets have been replaced with low-flow and high-efficiency models as of Jan. 2019. This has resulted in a savings of 2.4 million gallons of water a day.”

County commissioners recently renewed two agreements with the Metropolitan North Georgia Water Planning District to continue the program. The county will provide $50,000 for continued participation in the district-wide Single-Family Residential Toilet Retrofit program, and $30,000 for continued participation in the district-wide Multi-family High Efficiency Toilet Rebate Program.
