Washington Gas Maryland Rebates: December 1, 2026 Deadline and $100 Tune-Up

Washington Gas Maryland residential rebate applications must be submitted by December 1, 2026. The utility's EmPOWER participation ends December 31. Homeowners planning a natural gas furnace or boiler tune-up have a specific $100 rebate route through participating contractors.

Official information checked November 2, 2026, Korea time.

Quick Summary

  • Residential application deadline: December 1, 2026.
  • Program conclusion: December 31, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time.
  • Eligible heating tune-up: $100 rebate, with service costing at least $100.
  • The participating contractor completes the checklist and submits the application.

Which deadline applies?

The utility's program-ending FAQ separates residential projects from commercial projects, whose application cutoff is November 1. This article covers the Maryland residential route. Do not wait until the year-end program conclusion to submit a residential application.

The FAQ says eligible projects can continue through review and payment processing in 2027. That does not extend the application deadline or guarantee a rebate. Ask the processing center about project-specific completion and closeout requirements before booking work.

Does a furnace or boiler tune-up qualify?

The Maryland tune-up page offers $100 for a natural gas furnace or boiler serviced by a Home Energy Savings contractor. It limits eligible equipment to one tune-up rebate every three years. A service costing less than $100 is ineligible.

Before scheduling, ask the contractor to confirm that your Washington Gas account, equipment and last rebated service meet the program rules. A routine appointment with a contractor outside the participating network is not the submission process described by the utility.

How to arrange the work and application

  1. Open the official tune-up page and use its Find Contractor link.
  2. Confirm participation, the quoted service cost and the December 1 submission deadline before agreeing to work.
  3. The contractor performs the service and completes the Washington Gas Home Heating Tune-Up Checklist.
  4. The contractor submits the rebate application. Ask for confirmation of submission and keep the invoice and checklist copy for follow-up.

The tune-up page describes either a rebate on the contractor invoice or a mailed check within six to eight weeks. Confirm which method your contractor uses.

Other residential rebate options

The Maryland home-program directory also lists up to $900 for selected ENERGY STAR boilers and furnaces, up to $450 for selected water heaters, and up to $100 for an ENERGY STAR dryer. These are separate equipment offers with their own requirements, not amounts added automatically to a tune-up claim.

Who can check a missing or pending rebate?

The Rebate Application Processing Center lists 1-833-286-0860, Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Contact it with your contractor's submission confirmation and ask whether anything is missing. An appointment alone does not establish that an application was received.
