Do you struggle to pay heating or cooling bills each month? Does it seem as if your home is hard to heat and cool? Do you notice drafts around doors and windows?
If so, your home may need weatherization to make it more energy-efficient. If you meet income guidelines, you may be eligible for a federally-funded program that can provide FREE assistance.
Here's what one happy homeowner reported:
Typical Services Provided:
This program targets families with incomes below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level (see chart below for details), households receiving TANF, and households that include at least one member who receives SSI. People of any age may apply, but elderly or disabled people, and families with children receive priority when funds are limited.
You don't even have to own your home in order to qualify! You can get weatherization done on a home you are renting as long as your landlord is willing to participate.
