Weatherization
The Central Nebraska Community Services Weatherization Program provides for the installation of energy saving materials to homes to help to alleviate the ever increasing cost of heating and cooling the homes of Nebraska's low-income residents. Eligible low-income participants include renters as well as homeowners. If your home is a rental property, the landlord must agree to the work being completed and sign a form to this effect. The program is free to both owners and renters.
Some weatherization services include the following:
* Sidewall & attic insulation
* Infiltration work
* Primary door and window repair
* Furnace inspections and some minor furnace repair
Central Nebraska Community Services uses crews as well as contractors to install the materials. During the year, Central Nebraska Community Services will weatherize approximately 150 to 200 homes.
WHO QUALIFIES:
To qualify for the weatherization program an applicant must fill out a basic intake form and must furnish proof of income for the entire household for the past 12 months from the date of application. If you are a renter, a landlord agreement must accompany the basic intake form.
