WEATHERIZATION

The Weatherization program assists low-income households and has been nationally recognized by the United States Department of Energy. The Weatherization program has also received the Governor’s Initiative Energy Award.

Examples of weatherization measures residents receive include the installation of solar screens, weather stripping, blowing insulation, repairing broken windows and testing of household appliances-replacement if approved. Heating and air conditioning repairs and replacements, refrigerator efficiency checks and other energy saving devices may be repaired or replaced.

An assessment by trained weatherization staff is done to determine the needs of the property. Housing categories approved for this program are owner-occupied single-family homes, mobile homes and condos. Rentals with landlord/owner approval are also allowed. HELP weatherizes over 300 units per year which equals thousands of dollars in savings for clients, money that can be used toward basic needs like food and prescriptions.
