Want to learn about Energy Audits? How to get one? How to get weatherization work done on your home and get rebates for the work? Come to this workshop and learn about this on Wednesday, July 21 at 7 pm at the Memorial Building, Hardwick's Town Office building.

The Heat Squad has been working in Vermont since 2009 and recently expanded into the NEK. Most of Vermont homes were built before we figured out we shouldn't be heating the Great Outdoors.
Homeowners want to upgrade their homes to be safer and more comfortable and the HEAT Squad is there to help and make home improvements manageable by offering trustworthy advice, support, access to incentives, and financing for health, safety, and efficiency upgrades so homeowners can take charge of their homes.

Attendees will have an opportunity to meet the NEK auditor and energy advisor Sally Ayers. She will have her HEAT Squad car chock full of cool tools, including the blower door kit and infrared camera that she uses during a home audit visit to sleuth out opportunities for homeowners to save on their energy bills and make homes more comfortable. Sample audit reports will also be available, and information about rebates, incentives, financing a project, and the stove swap program. People who have had an audit, but need a bit more conversation to decide on next steps for weatherization work will be able to speak with Sally, first come, first served.

The Heat Squad works with the Vermont Low Income Trust for Electricity (VLITE) which funds projects that advance the state's energy goals with a particular focus on the energy needs of low-income Vermonters. Find out more about them at https://www.heatsquad.org/ and https://vlite.org/.
