The Low-Income Weatherization Assistance Program provides weatherization and energy conservation services at no cost to households below 60 percent of Oregon statewide median income. Primary funding for the program is from the U.S. Department of Energy with other funds from the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, utility companies and the Bonneville Power Administration.
To be eligible, a household's income must be below 60 percent of Oregon´s median income. Income is based on all income in the household, for all members of the household, before payroll deductions.
A qualifying household must apply through a local Community Action Center (.pdf), and be placed on a weatherization waiting list. The waiting period varies with each local agency depending on the area need. Households with senior and disabled members, and households with children under six years of age are given priority.
Once a home is scheduled for weatherization, the applicant is contacted and an energy audit is scheduled. An energy audit determines the appropriate measures to be initiated based on the existing condition of the home and the funds available.
Completed work is inspected by the local agency to ensure compliance with program standards.
Services provided may include:
ceiling, wall, and floor insulation;
energy related minor home repairs;
energy conservation education;
infiltration reduction;
furnace repair and replacement; and
heating duct improvements.
