Jefferson County CAC - Home Weatherization Assistance Program (HWAP)

The busy crew that operates this program works year round to make the homes of income eligible participants more energy efficient. Towards that end, they insulate attics, blow cellulose into side walls, and take any other practical measures to minimize or stop cold air infiltration. Furnaces are checked and repaired or replaced under this program, as well.

Eligibility is determined by ranking on a point system, and can be awarded to either home owners or tenants. Priority is extended to low-income, elderly, and citizens with disabilities.

Appropriate Referrals to HWAP:

Low income, elderly, those with disabilities, who need their homes weatherized.

Eligibility Requirements:

Proof of income, can be home renter or owner.

HWAP is funded by the Ohio Department of Development through C.O.A.D. Additional funds are provided through Columbia Gas Warm Choice Program and the Targeted Energy Efficiency Program ( T.E.E.)
