For Saskatchewan to continue to enjoy a healthy, sustainable economy, we need to find solutions to environmental challenges, reduce pollution, lower greenhouse gas emissions and preserve the quantity and quality of our water supply. This will require us to think differently about our water use, and move towards water conservation and efficiency.
Water conservation means becoming aware of how much water we use, and using it efficiently so that there will always be enough to support our communities, industries and agriculture while ensuring a healthy, sustainable environment.
The Ministry of Environment's Go Green Fund provides financial support to Saskatchewan's people to help them Go Green. The Provincial Toilet Replacement Rebate Program is funded through the Go Green Fund. It provides a $50 rebate to Saskatchewan home and facility owners who replace a high volume toilet (13-litre per flush or higher) with a dual flush or 6-litre or less per flush toilet.
Effective Dates:
The Provincial Toilet Replacement Rebate Program began on January 1, 2009 and is expected to run until December 31, 2012.
The home or structure must have been built before 2009, and the new toilets must have been purchased on or after January 1, 2009 to be eligible. Newly-constructed bathrooms in older homes are not eligible.
Forms and Details:
PLEASE NOTE: Photocopied, "Reprint" or "Duplicate" receipts, including those printed by your retailer, are NOT accpeted. See here for additional information on receipts: Proof of Purchase Requirements - pdf file

When will I receive my rebate cheque?
Processing takes an average of 6-8 weeks from the date your application is received. Incomplete applications will be delayed. Currently, applications received the week of January 9 – 13, 2012 are being processed.
Where can I get information on the performance of low flush models?
Not all low flush and dual flush toilets offer the same performance. Please research the many CSA- or c-UPC-certified models available to ensure the toilet you purchase and install is likely to meet your performance expectations.
An independent report by the Canadian Water and Waste Water Association regarding many of the low and dual-flush models available in the marketplace today can be found here.
Does my community offer an additional rebate?
Yes, several municipalities in the province offer their own incentive programs, including supplemental rebates or credits.
