Weatherization Program

About the Program

The Weatherization Program helps income eligible households cut their heating costs and improve the comfort level of their homes by making energy-saving home improvements. Improvements to be made are determined from the energy auditor’s blower door testing equipment at your home. Items may include furnace improvements; minimize infiltration; insulation of attic, walls, and floor; and venting of water heaters and heating systems.

 

 

WCMCA is seeking Mechanical, Electrical and Weatherization Contractors to contract with us to perform weatherization services in qualified homes in our 8 County service territory. If you are interested in joining us in making a difference in our communities, please contact Deanna at 218-405-3017 or deannaa@wcmca.org

The Weatherization Program is required to implement a priority system which includes the elderly, handicapped, high energy consumers, and households with small children.
