Insulation and air sealing work hand in hand to weatherize your home, saving you energy and money and making your home more comfortable. Air sealing is usually the first step—eliminating leakage points in your home, like those found in attics, basements, and between joists.

Benefits of insulation and air sealing improvements include:

• Lowering energy used for heating and cooling by up to 20%
• Decreasing drafts to improve comfort and humidity all year long
• Minimizing outside noise for a quieter, more peaceful environment
• Preventing allergens and pests from entering your home
• Reducing the chance of ice dams—protecting your home from potential damage

If your income is below the numbers on the above chart, and you are already receiving fuel assistance, you can call HomeWorks as well at 413-207-9807 or sign up online at www.hwe.works/EGS. If your income falls above the numbers on the chart, you can still call HomeWorks and you may be eligible for at least 75% off of approved insulation.
