Who is Eligible?

Three ways to qualify for upgrades

Option 1 income limits

This program is designed to help those experiencing high utility bills have a way to reduce them by making the home more energy efficient. 9 out of 10 attics are estimated to be under-insulated, and too many homes are drafty, leaking warm air out in the winter and allowing humid air in the summer.  This impacts our energy bills, our planet and residents' health.

Option 1 - if you are a resident of Waukesha and you are either over 60 years of age OR have a documented disability (in some cases veteran status also qualifies you. Additionally, you must be under the income limits listed below

• Up to $8,400 grant to insulate attic and make the house less drafty. Possible additional grant for minor home repairs

• $25,000 financing at 0% interest for basement insulation, ENERGY STAR triple pane windows and/or heating system upgrades. Generally not needed to be paid back until the home is sold.

Option 2 -if you are a resident of the City of Waukesha that earns more than the amount above but LESS than the following, you may qualify for 0% interest financing through the City of Waukesha over 10 years for home improvements.
