Georgia residents who are thinking of buying a new appliance should mark their calendars for Feb. 12. That's the date when the Georgia Environmental Facilities Authority will begin offering rebates of $25 to $200 to people who buy energy-efficient refrigerators, freezers, water heaters, air conditioners, furnaces, clothes washers, dishwashers and boilers, GEFA Executive Director Phil Foil announced.

Rebates are available to Georgia residents who buy qualifying appliances in Georgia. Online purchases are exempt. The appliances must carry a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Energy Star rating.
