A $1000.00 rebate will be given to the builder after an inspection confirming the installation of a working natural gas water heater, working natural gas cook top and/or furnace and a natural gas connection for the clothes dryer in each home. The Corpus Christi Gas Department will install up to 100 feet of service line, provide an anode-less service riser and meter against the house at a pre-designated point of entry.  Builders are asked to give sufficient notice for service line installation to take place without obstructions for the necessary equipment to dig the trench to install the service line. All gas lines installed inside the house will be the responsibility of the builder.

In addition to the $1000.00 rebate and the house line installation, builders will be included in advertisements with the City of Corpus Christi Gas Department. Builders will be recognized as Natural Gas Home Builders in the Corpus Christi Caller Times, City Utility Bill Inserts, printed material in our city offices, at Home Expos, Corpus Christi Builders Association, and on our website. Rebates of $75.00 for the pool heater and fireplace are still applicable.

The Natural Gas Home Builder Rebate Program will help builders share the commitment with the City of Corpus Christi to provide new homeowners long term money saving opportunities by using efficient Natural Gas appliances. Most all subdivisions in our city are ready to provide homeowners the convenience of clean-burning and economical Natural Gas energy. Natural Gas is the natural choice for everyone.

The City of Corpus Christi Gas Department is making it easier for builders to offer Natural Gas as a standard feature in all future homes for potential homeowners. The incentive package will be offered to all home builders that commit to building future homes with Natural Gas.

Each home must have a minimum of three outlets placed strategically for the following natural gas appliances in the following order:

1. Natural Gas water heater
2. Natural Gas clothes dryer
3. Natural Gas cook top and/or Natural Gas furnace
