New Residential Energy Efficiency Program Available

More than half of a home’s total energy costs come from heating and cooling, because air is constantly moving in and out of your home though hundreds of tiny cracks and gaps. Two simple improvements— air sealing and insulating a home—reduce the amount of outside air that gets in and indoor air that escapes. Most homes don’t have enough insulation, which is like braving a winter day without a coat. And if a home isn’t air sealed, it’s like driving your car with the windows rolled down and turning the heater up to compensate.

Fortunately, it’s never been easier to give your home a warm winter coat! Learn more after the jump or call 1-855-9-IMPACT for more information.

Energy Impact Illinois, which is implemented by CNT Energy, has a program that offers a huge instant rebate on energy efficiency upgrades and makes the process easier than ever. For a limited time, homeowners can save 70 percent, up to $1,750, off the most cost effective and permanent energy efficiency improvements: air sealing and insulating your home.

Take advantage of this deal in three easy steps:

1. Call 1-855-9-IMPACT to set up an appointment. You’ll get connected to a reputable efficiency contractor who will perform an energy assessment on your home, using sophisticated equipment and years of experience to uncover precisely which energy improvements will be most effective. Normally, this service costs $400 or more, but for a limited time, it’s only $99.
2. Get an energy analysis and cost estimate. Once the assessment is complete, the contractor will provide an estimate for air sealing and insulation and other improvements that might be useful. Again, you save 70 percent (up to $1750) off the cost of the air sealing and insulation, and there are attractive loan options if you want to finance the rest of the cost or go beyond basic energy efficiency.
3. The contractor completes the work. Energy Impact Illinois will handle all the paperwork and ensure the work was done correctly and safely. You’ll start seeing the savings and feeling the comfort.

If you have service from Peoples or North Shore Gas, or are a Nicor Gas and ComEd customer, you are likely eligible—call 1-855-9-IMPACT to confirm. You must own a single family home or 2-4 unit residential building to be eligible. This is a limited time offer, so don’t delay!
