Here are the current programs and rebates for commercial customers. There are two commercial rebate programs for efficient devices and commercial turf removal.
Urinal Flush Valve Upgrades + Installation

Free Water-Use Site Visit
The City of Corona Department of Water and Power offers our customers free outdoor landscape water use site visits for customers that are out of budget. For a business customer, if you are being billed at Tier 2, 3, or 4 rates, you are out of your allocated budget. At your site visit, our experienced technicians will run your irrigation system, point out any problems with the system, make small adjustments as necessary, and offer suggestions for additional water savings. Please contact our Water Resources Team at (951) 736-2234 or email StopTheDrop@CoronaCA.gov to schedule your site visit.
