An attraction like no other, natural coastal Florida comes alive for all ages at Tampa Electric's Manatee Viewing Center. Delight in vibrant butterfly gardens and learn from interactive displays about the manatee, how the electric grid serves you and more. Feel the force of a hurricane. Study manatee bones. Or stroll along a 900-foot tidal walkway. And when the water temperature of Tampa Bay is 68 degrees Fahrenheit or colder, get up close with the center's most popular visitors – manatees, sometimes hundreds at a time.
Solar water heater rebates are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis; existing installations do not qualify. To get started, complete and submit a reservation. After Tampa Electric receives your reservation, a representative will contact you to schedule a free Energy Audit. The audit, which provides energy-saving measures to help you reduce energy costs, is a required part of the rebate approval process.
