What is Weatherization?
Weatherization has an important story to tell.   Weatherization Works!  Everyday, weatherization helps low-income families conserve energy, save money, and improve their living conditions.  Weatherization measures even save lives.  Returning $2.10 in benefits for every $1 invested.   Weatherization is the nation's "best kept secret"  It is time to let that secret out!

The Weatherization Program sponsored by Ozark Action, Inc. is a free service for homeowners or renters who qualify.   Weatherization crews insulate and repair homes to make them more energy efficient.   Weatherizing can make a home warmer during the winter and cooler during the summer, in return saving heating and cooling dollars.

Who Is Eligible?
All applicants must meet income guidelines.  Renters must have owner approval and owner participation to receive services.

How Do I Apply?
Application for Weatherization are accepted by appointment at the Ozark Action Outreach Centers in our service area.  If you qualify, all work and materials are provided at no cost to you!

What Services are Provided?
The Weatherization Assistance Program utilizes crews and advanced technology to make the homes of low-income people more energy efficient.  Installation is often added to attics, walls and or floors.

All infiltration measures such as caulking, weather-stripping, repairing and replacement of primary doors and windows are effectively guided by the use of blower doors.

Heating systems are tested for efficiency and safety.  Attics and walls are insulated to recommended R-values.   All weatherization measures are cost tested using a computerized audit system to ensure only the most cost effective measures are performed.
