Welcome to the Direct Installation for Multi-Family Efficiency (DIME) Program!
DIME is a pilot program, sponsored by the Long Beach Water Department, to retrofit multi-family dwellings with new water efficient appliances.
Applications are currently closed but are expected to open again soon. Please check back or fill out the form to the right to get on our interest list.
Our Goal
Long Beach is a beautiful and diverse city. The DIME program aims to assist residents that live in multi-family buildings to become more water and energy efficient in their everyday lives.
Specifically, the DIME program will retrofit both kitchen and bathroom aerators, toilets, shower heads and coin operated washing machines at zero cost to residents! Changing out these devices effectively reduces water and energy usage, which benefits our customers and the environment!
