We’re likely facing a system replacement in the next year or two based on what an inspection turned up, and the cost is significant enough that I need to plan rather than react. I’ve heard there are rebate or assistance programs in some Washington counties, and that some companies offer financing. I have no idea what’s real and what’s marketing. Has anyone actually used either, and what should I be looking into before we get to the point of no choice? Our system is original to a house built in the late eighties, so I assume we’re near the end of its natural life regardless of what we do. Just want to be strategic about the timing.
