The Weatherization Assistance Program performs energy audits for eligible owners and renters, in order to find areas that have the highest potential for heat loss.  We develop a work scope and apply materials that have the greatest potential to save on fuel and electric costs and increase the comfort for residents.

The four main areas we address are:

• INFILTRATION: Where unwanted cold enters the home.  Caulking, weather-stripping and foam products are used.

• CONDUCTIVE LOSS:  When heat produced inside is lost to the outside.  Insulation is installed in walls, basements and attics.

• REPAIRS:  Are only performed in order to protect the energy saving materials we install.

• HEALTH AND SAFETY:  Installing smoke and CO detectors, insuring that all combustible appliances are vented and operating safely.

Weatherization Plus:  Provides those individuals that do not qualify for Weatherization the opportunity to have the same type of services performed on their home for a fee.

For more information about either of these programs contact Robert Rock 518-943-9205 extension 113 or email: rrock@cagcny.org.
