Once an applicant has been determined program eligible, an energy audit is performed on the home. The audit includes diagnostic testing which is performed by an ECS certified energy auditor. Based upon the energy audit findings, a crew of trained workers will return to install the required weatherization measures. This conserves energy and improves the energy efficiency of the home thus reducing energy costs, improving comfort, and positively impacting the health and safety of the participant. ECS actively pursues opportunities for increased funding to expand weatherization services.
Priority is given to the elderly, disabled residents, and households with young children.

The CAP staff will tell you what information is required to complete your application. To prevent processing delays, be sure to provide all information they request. If you are homebound and unable to visit a CAP office, telephone your local CAP to arrange a home interview or an interview over the phone.
