WEATHERIZATION ASSISTANCE |
| |
The Weatherization Assistance
Program is funded by the U.S. Department of Energy through
grants to the Virginia Department of Housing and Community
Development (DHCD), as well as from from the Virginia
Department of Social Services’ Low-Income Home Energy Assistance
Program (LIHEAP) Weatherization Component.
The Weatherization Assistance program provides funds to reduce
the heating and cooling costs for low-income families, and to
ensure their health and safety. Assistance services are
available for low-income households, particularly for the
elderly, individuals with disabilities, and families with
children. The program provides direct installation of energy saving measures such as:
• Sealing air-leaks with insulation, caulking, and
weather-stripping;
• Installation of ventilation fans;
• Repairing leaky duct systems;
• Repairing and/or replacing inefficient or unsafe heating
systems; and
• Installation of energy efficient lighting
In Mecklenburg Electric Cooperative's ongoing promotion of energy efficiency and ways for our
members to save money, the weatherization
providers are listed below by county.
In order to take advantage of this program you need to call the
