- Insulation and air sealing
- High-efficiency heating and cooling systems
- Energy-saving water heaters
- ENERGY-STAR® certified windows and appliances
A quality assurance inspector will be on site or may contact you post-service for an inspection.
Do I Qualify?
If your family’s combined gross annual household income is at or below the state’s 60% income median, you may qualify for the program.
If you already qualify for our income-based payment assistance programs like the Electric Discount Rate or the Matching Payment Program (MPP) you are also qualified if you have not received these services within the last six years.

You'll need to apply for the program to schedule your in-home assessment and service.
