What is Weatherization?
Weatherization is the process of making homes more energy-efficient for a comfortable indoor environment while lowering energy consumption and environmental impact. This involves actions like improving insulation, sealing air leaks, optimizing HVAC systems, insulating ductwork, upgrading appliances, enhancing water heater efficiency and implementing energy-efficient lighting. By doing this, homes can maintain a consistent indoor temperature, reduce energy bills, and contribute to environmental sustainability.
