Energy-Saving Campaign Kicks Off in Brookfield

Press release:

Brookfield, Conn. – September 15, 2014 – The Town of Brookfield is working to help residents reduce their energy consumption, save money on their energy bills, and support Brookfield Social Services by encouraging participation in Energize Connecticut’s Home Energy SolutionsSM (HES) program.

Home Energy Solutions, brought to you by CL&P and Yankee Gas, is a convenient in-home service designed to help you save money on your energy bills and make your home more comfortable year round.

Now through December 31, a $25 donation will be made to Brookfield Social Services for each resident that participates in HES. The donations will be made by Energy PRZ of Brookfield and Handyman Express of Stratford, the CL&P-authorized energy specialists that are available to provide Brookfield residents with HES.

For those who sign up for Home Energy Solutions, one of the energy specialists will come to your home or apartment and perform a thorough energy assessment, make on-the-spot energy improvements including air sealing and lighting upgrades, and provide you with a comprehensive report detailing additional saving opportunities.

While these services are valued at an average of $1,000, the cost for the HES service is only $99, with the fee waived for income-eligible residents. The average home in Connecticut will save approximately $250 annually after completing the initial HES visit. Additional Energize Connecticut efficiency measures such as insulation upgrades will result in deeper savings.

For additional information or to schedule your Home Energy Solutions appointment today, Brookfield residents should call 203-448-6875.
