In Maryland, having a heating system is crucial. But many households struggle with heating systems that aren’t working right. This causes comfort issues and creates high energy bills from BGE, Delmarva Power, PEPCO, and other utilities.
But there’s good news! Help is available for families in need of a furnace or heating system replacement program, as well as HVAC repairs and other home upgrades. Here’s how weatherization from CAC helps.
CAC’s no-cost weatherization services involve many home upgrades, including those that would be covered by a furnace assistance program. We are funded by different sources, from federal and local governments to utility companies.
Weatherization through CAC is more than just an HVAC replacement program or a discount on heating system upgrades. Weatherization means repairing or replacing old or broken heating systems as well as making overall home improvements. It aims to make your whole home more comfortable, safe, healthy, and affordable to run. These programs are a lifeline for many Maryland residents.
The no cost services we offer include:
Together, the energy savings of these upgrades add up! Families who participate in weatherization programs save an average of $283 every year in energy costs. Our services help with heating system replacement or repair. They also lower your monthly heating (and cooling) bills for years to come.
Whether you’re a homeowner or a renter, weatherization assistance is available at no cost to you if you meet our program criteria. Unfortunately, CAC isn’t able to help when you’ve already bought a new system and are currently financing it through the installer. To qualify for our programs you must work with CAC from start to finish.
Qualifying for furnace replacement assistance with CAC is easy. Here’s what you need to do:
HVAC repair or replacement services are often too expensive for many Maryland families. They may delay upgrades because they think they don’t qualify for grant-funded assistance. However, CAC’s weatherization programs have different eligibility criteria than other assistance programs.
You might be surprised to find that you qualify. For example, a family of four with an annual income of $94,650 or less is eligible. Find more details on our Weatherization Eligibility page!
