Please note: CVWD and the Inland Empire Utilities Agency have implemented new safety protocols for all water efficient programs for public health safety. Customers will experience a bit of delay on their appointments, as Conserv Inc. and Ecotech Services will be catching up with those that had to be rescheduled due to COVID-19.
CVWD and partnering agencies are offering the following No-Cost Water Use Efficiency Programs to eligible, residential customers to assist them in saving water outdoors and in their home.
For more information on these regional programs, visit Inland Empire Utilities Agency's website at www.IEUA.org.
Small Site Controller Upgrade Program (Eligible for customers with less than 1/4 acre) This program provides you an opportunity to replace your old sprinkler timer with a new, water efficient device, installed by a landscape professional. The evaluation and efficient device are FREE (up to a $1,000 value per landscape). Some restrictions may apply. We have contracted with Conserv Inc. to manage the following two programs. If you are interested in any of the other services they offer, please visit their website at www.conservinc.net. As of September 1, 2020 you MUST watch a mandatory introductory video and take a short quiz to participate. For more information call (909) 987-2591.
