Energy Assessment, Air Sealing & Insulation Rebates for Low and Moderate Income Mainers

Are you interested in lowering your heating costs and making your home more comfortable? Take steps to tighten up your home with the no-cost Air Sealing and Assessment and consider having additional insulation installed at a significant discount.

Reducing the amount of air that leaks in and out of your home can be a cost-effective way to reduce heating costs and improve comfort. Some air sealing measures like caulking and weather stripping can be installed as do-it-yourself projects, but many air sealing projects are best completed by a professional. A professional energy assessment can help to prioritize air sealing efforts. See table below for enhanced incentives for low income families.

An installer reservation is required before work begins.
