Information for Homeowners

By sealing leaks in windows and vents, weather stripping doors, wrapping pipes and water heaters and insulating roofs and attics, workers trained through LIUNA’s breakthrough weatherization program reduce America’s dependence on foreign oil, make homes more energy efficient and lower utility bills.

Reduce Energy Bills
Weatherization saves the average homeowner $350 a year on energy bills. The cost of weatherization more than pays for itself by reducing energy bills and through the community benefits of job creation. Read about financing options for home weatherization projects and find out whether you qualify for federal weatherization assistance.

Help Our Environment
Buildings contribute 40% of U.S. global warming pollution and account for 70% of electricity use. Weatherizing 100 million homes means the equivalent of 500 million fewer barrels of imported oil.
