Summary (taken from the Northern Utilities website)
Northern Utilities offers two weatherization programs. Through the Partners in
Energy Weatherization Program, customers can receive rebates of 50% to 75% of
the costs associated with purchasing and installing weatherization improvements,
such as attic/wall insulation and air sealing. Homeowners are eligible for 50%, up to
$1,500, and tenants can receive 75% of the cost, up to $1,500. Low-income
customers are eligible to receive weatherization improvements at no cost. For
smaller, “do-it-yourself” weatherization projects such as installing door sweeps, pipe
insulation, and caulking, Northern Utilities offers a $25 "Self Install" rebate.
Customers should see the program web site for rebate forms and program details.
Customers can learn how to improve the energy efficiency of their home and save
money on energy bills with a Home Energy Assessment. Northern Utilities' Partners
in Energy Program offers up to $150 toward an in-home energy assessment. This
program allows customers to pick their own contractor. Rebate forms and
information on how to select a contractor can be found on the program web site.
Northern Utilities, as a member of GasNetworks, also offers rebates for high efficient
space and water heating equipment. This program offers residential customers up to
$1,350 in rebates towards the installation of qualified high-efficiency gas-fired space
and water heating equipment. Eligible equipment includes furnaces, boilers, water
heaters, thermostats, and windows. All equipment must meet certain energy
efficiency standards listed on the website. Customers fill out the application after the
installation is complete.
