Through the Income Eligible Program, eligible homeowners and renters receive no-cost insulation and air-sealing upgrades, heating and cooling equipment upgrades, as well as new home appliances and more.
Insulation and air sealing work hand in hand to weatherize your home, saving you energy and money and making your home more comfortable. Air sealing is usually the first step—eliminating leakage points in your home, like those found in attics, basements, and between joists.
Benefits of insulation and air sealing improvements include:
- Lowering heating and cooling costs by up to 20%
- Decreasing drafts to improve comfort and humidity all year long
- Minimizing outside noise for a quieter, more peaceful environment
- Preventing allergens and pests from entering your home
- Reducing the chance of ice dams—protecting your home from potential damage
