The U.S. Department of Energy’s Weatherization Assistance program is the nation’s core program for delivering energy efficiency services to low income households. Professionally trained weatherization crews perform on-site home energy audits using state of the art equipment to identify outside drafts and inspect heating and cooling systems for efficiency.
Weatherization crews install insulation, seal off air leaks, make modifications to (or replace) existing heating systems and make minor repairs to ensure safety.
Once installed, these energy saving measures will help to reduce your heating and cooling costs for years to come.
- Weatherization measures are delivered to single-family homes, multi-family dwellings, and mobile homes.
- Weatherization measures reduce average annual energy costs by $300 per home.
- Weatherization returns $2.10 in energy-related benefits for every $1 invested in the program.
The Home Weatherization Program is a federal program locally administered by the Five County Association of Governments and managed by the Utah Department of Community Development/Office of Energy Services. It is designed to help residents-who meet federal low-income guidelines-lower their utility bills and improve the comfort of their homes.
The Five County Association of Governments administers this program in the five southwestern counties of Utah: Beaver, Garfield, Iron, Kane and Washington.
