Energy Assistance
The Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP) uses energy conservation techniques to reduce the cost of home energy consumption by an estimated percent. Each home is inspected and WAP guidelines are followed to ensure that homes are energy efficient. Homeowners are made aware of the program and what items are being corrected.
