Starting July 1st, more than $1.8 million in funds will be available for the Low Income Weatherization Program in Washoe County. This program will upgrade and retrofit qualified homes to save money and energy. According to the State of Nevada Housing Division, more than 300 homes in Washoe County will receive the improvements saving 270,326 kilowatt hours of electricity and 25,207 therms of natural gas annually.
Hopefully this program, and others like it, will not only help us become a ‘greener’ planet but will create jobs and get our economy back on the road to recovery!
More information on the weatherization is available on the State of Nevada website.
