Program Updates
PIP Updates
Changes to the Product Incentive Program (PIP) incentives due to the new regulation on magnetic T12 ballasts will take effect April 1, 2009. Very few changes have been made to incentive levels. However, where changes have been made, the existing incentives end March 31, 2009. To qualify for those incentives, customers must have their installation completed and their applications submitted online by March 31st.
You should have received the revised incentive sheet via mail already. If not, or if you have any questions, please contact our Business Helpdesk at 604-522-4713 or toll free at 1-866-522-4713.
