Your application paperwork

This is a free, federally funded program that lowers your energy bills by improving your home's energy efficiency. After you qualify, a local agency does a free home energy audit and installs measures like attic insulation, air sealing, and heating system repair at no cost to you. The Wisconsin Department of Administration runs it through a network of local community action agencies, so you apply through the agency that serves your county.

Steps to apply

  1. Confirm you qualify: you live in the home and your household income is within the program limit (commonly at or below 200 percent of the federal poverty level; you are usually automatically eligible if you receive SSI, TANF, or energy assistance).
  2. Find the local weatherization or community action agency that serves your county using the Home Energy Plus agency locator (or call 866-432-8947).
  3. Contact that agency and complete its intake application with your income, ownership, and household information.
  4. The agency schedules a free home energy audit to decide which measures your home needs.
  5. The approved energy efficiency measures are installed at no cost to you.

Documents you will likely need

  • Proof of income for everyone in the household (recent pay stubs, last year's tax return, or benefit award letters), or proof that you receive SSI, TANF, or energy assistance.
  • Proof you own or rent and live in the home (a deed, mortgage statement, or lease; renters need the owner's written permission).
  • A recent utility bill for the home.
  • A government-issued photo ID.

Requirements vary by program and locality. Confirm the exact rules on the official program page. We can help you prepare your paperwork, but you submit it yourself.

Deadline: Ongoing, priority for high-energy users
