Applications may be picked up at any of our offices, mailed, e-mailed or printed out from CAPNM’s website October 1 - April 30. A “check list” of required items is included on the application and on our website. Weatherization Assistance Program – LIHEAP approved households are prioritized based upon homes with high heating costs and if household members are elderly, disabled or children under 18. A household must continue to be approved for LIHEAP each heating season to remain on the “Priority” list. Upon reaching the top of that list, the Weatherization Department contacts the household to set up an appointment to conduct an energy audit. An energy auditor will evaluate your home’s energy efficiency and make recommendations of the measures that could be done to the home to provide the biggest energy savings. Based upon those recommendations, a combination of weatherization measures such as wall, attic, and floor insulation may be installed, doors and windows may be repaired. Call our Weatherization Department directly at [PHONE REDACTED] for more information.
