What is Ohio Weatherization Assistance Program?

The Ohio's Home Weatherization Assistance Program is a federally funded, low-income residential energy efficiency program. The program reduces low-income households' energy use, thus creating more affordable housing for those in most need. Services include attic, wall and basement insulation; blower door guided air leakage reduction; heating system repairs or replacements; and health and safety testing and inspections. All measures are provided based on an on-site energy audit and on cost effective guidelines developed using the NEAT computerized energy audit. Individualized client education is an important component of the program.

Administration

Ohio Weatherization Assistance Program is administered by Ohio.
