Toilet Rebate

The City offers a $50 rebate to residents who replace high-flow fixtures (greater than 6 litres per flush) with low flow fixtures (6 litres or less). The rebate program, aimed at reducing water consumption within city residences, began October 17, 2005, and is available to Barrie residents who own homes built before 1996.
