The best way to learn about energy efficiency in your home is to meet with Greg Jones, POWER's Energy Advocate!
For no cost, Greg will assess your home and help you in planning the next steps towards improved efficiency.
WHAT PEOPLE SAY
"You'll have a warmer house and save energy on top of it. That really pleased me. I tried every other way to save energy and water. Energy was going out through my walls and the floor, and it was energy that I could have saved. I would never have been able to do it without POWER."
— Lisa Kavanaugh,
Oberlin Homeowner
