Added Insulation Rebate

Lower your bill and improve the comfort of your home or business

Insulation slows down the amount of heat that flows in or out of a home and reduces the amount of energy used by the heating and cooling systems to maintain a comfortable temperature. Adding additional insulation in an attic when existing levels are inadequate can reduce heat transfer and help to lower energy bills. This rebate encourages the installation or addition of insulation in existing single family homes and small businesses.

Rebate Offer

Residential: $ 0.125 per square foot of insulation up to $375 rebate. Additional $40 if paired with Central A/C Maintenance Rebate.

Small Business: $ 0.125 per square foot of insulation up to $375 rebate.
