ColdTechCommercial.com Launches the First Commercial Appliance Rebate Database in the US.
To help restaurants and the food service industry save time and money, while helping the environment, ColdTechCommercial.com created an online tool to easily find rebates for commercial refrigeration and other appliances.
FINDLAY, Ohio, Aug. 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- ColdTechCommercial.com, an online commercial refrigeration retailer, announces the launch Commercial Appliance Rebate Database (CARD). CARD revolutionizes the way restaurants find online commercial rebates. Until now, there was no resource that allowed restaurant owners to view all of the commercial rebate opportunities in one spot. CARD now offers this comprehensive list--saving restaurants and the food service industry time and money.
ColdTech Commercial's Commercial Appliance Rebate Database (CARD) includes about 230 resources and is searchable by state. Most rebates are tied to Energy Star ratings and can be from organizations, cities or federally funded. Rebates are usually given to decrease energy consumption and increase savings on local businesses' energy bills by encouraging the replacement of older and inefficient appliances or select equipment. Rebates range from about $50 per unit to hundreds of dollars.
ColdTechCommercial.com's Sr. Marketing Manager, eCommerce, Ceri Nelmes says, "The industry is looking to save money where it can. As members of the National Restaurant Association, we are aware the increases in food and energy costs leave less profit for the average restaurant owner. Even though all of our products are eStar rated, we still wanted to do more to help save money. There was no centralized resource to help our customers find commercial rebates - so we created one. We researched, by hand, all of the opportunities available. It was a time intensive process, but well worth the investment. Some of the rebate websites were hard to find and even harder to navigate."
Nelmes warns, "We found some rebates have to be approved before purchase, so if you know you will need a commercial appliance soon, start finding out what's required to qualify now. Other rebate programs have a dollar value for the region or state and once the funds are exhausted you're out of luck."
ColdTechCommercial.com plans to update the database several times a year, but hopes customers will inform them by email when they have found a new resource or if a program has finished.
