Free Energy Audits Available For Brookfield Residents
Here's how you can apply for a free energy audit.
BROOKFIELD, CT — The Home Energy Solutions program that is funded by a fee on residents' electric bills is offering free home energy audits until the end of 2020. There are new, more generous rebates for efficiency improvements, with no-cost efficiency work for those who are income-eligible.
There are larger incentive payments for windows, air or ground source heat pumps, or insulation, and the audit includes several free conservation measures during the visit. The program is free for anyone who has not had an audit in the past 36 months. This revised program is designed to make up for the time lost this year because of the pandemic and includes new safety procedures to cope with COVID-19. One of them is a virtual preaudit by phone.
You can apply for a free home audit by phone at 1-877-WISE-USE (9473-873) or online here.
