Understanding the SMUD Grass Conversion Rebate

To qualify for the SMUD rebate, the property must be located within the SMUD service area. The conversion must be completed by a licensed contractor or the homeowner themselves. The program requires that the new landscaping be installed within 12 months of the application. The rebate is calculated based on the square footage of the turf removed, not the total area of the yard. This means that homeowners can maximize their savings by converting the largest possible area of turf. For additional details, review the Salvador Landscape Projects.

However, most homeowners report a 30% to 50% reduction in water usage after converting to drought-tolerant landscaping.
