Home / Rebates by State

Storm shelter rebates, state by state.

Some states pay up to 75% of your shelter. Others pay nothing and send you to FEMA. Pick your state for the program, the current status, and exactly how to apply.

The one rule that explains everything
FEMA funds states, not homeowners. You can't apply to FEMA directly. Money flows from FEMA's Hazard Mitigation Assistance program to states, which either run a rebate program or pass it to counties. In states with no program, you access it through your State Hazard Mitigation Officer. That's why availability is so uneven — and why this page exists.

Found your program?

Most rebates require a vetted, standards-compliant installer.

Many programs (Mississippi, Kansas and others) require a licensed or NSSA/ATSA-member installer and a unit that meets ICC-500. We'll match you with one.
