Home Performance Incentives
Payback and Benefits
Energy efficient improvements can save 30% or more of a home's energy costs. But energy efficiency is only one piece of a high performance home. The energy savings is what pays for home comfort and health and a better environment for us all.
The payback period varies from home to home. In some homes, the payback is a couple of years while in other homes it may take ten years for the investment to pay back. Whatever the payback period, home performance improvements are a good investment that can also reduce green house gasses and improve the comfort and health of your home.
Low Interest Financing
Financing is available for energy efficient improvements. Generally, the loan payment is completely offset by the utility bill savings. In addition, most homeowners can receive a tax credit up to $1,500. Imagine; a more healthy, comfortable and green home plus $1,500.
