Insulation rebates

Upgrade your home's insulation and get up to $2,800 back!

Add comfort where it counts

Stay efficient—and comfortable—with an insulation upgrade

Drafts and thin insulation don’t just make things uncomfortable, they can also cost you money. From gaps in your doors and doorframes to poorly rated insulation in your walls and attic, shoring up your home’s weather stripping and insulation helps keep things comfortable while making your heating and cooling more efficient and cost effective.
