WEATHERIZATION

The Home Weatherization Assistance Program provides home weatherproofing and energy efficiency services to qualifying individuals at no cost.  Home weatherization can result in a savings of 30% or more on energy bills.  In addition, home weatherization reduces toxic emissions that are harming our environment.

To make homes more energy efficient, safe, and comfortable, CAA’s weatherization team may:

  • Service or replace heating equipment such as furnaces or water heaters
  • Test and/or replace the refrigerator, installing Energy Star appliances when appropriate
  • Seal return ducts to ensure proper air flow
  • Perform whole house diagnostic testing to determine air leakage
  • Repair missing plaster/drywall and missing/broken glass in windows
  • Insulate attics, sidewalls, floors, and crawl spaces as needed
  • Insulate the water heater and pipes
  • Replace incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescent bulbs
  • Provide consumer energy education
