Green Iowa AmeriCorps and CFU Partner to Help Qualified Homeowners

Posted on Friday, January 25, 2019

Cedar Falls Utilities in partnership with Green Iowa AmeriCorps will help qualified homeowners make energy efficient upgrades.

Green Iowa AmeriCorps is a state-wide community service program. Their mission is to help make Iowans more energy efficient through home weatherization, energy education and community outreach.

One way they do this is to provide home energy audits and weatherization services. For those that meet income requirements, Green Iowa AmeriCorps provides weatherization labor free of charge and CFU covers all material costs.

Home weatherization upgrades can include sealing windows and doors, insulating water heater pipes, switching to LED light bulbs and installing water-saving faucet aerators and showerheads.

To find out if your home qualifies for free weatherization services from Cedar Falls Utilities and Green Iowa AmeriCorps, please call 319-273-7233 or visit www.greeniowaamericorps.org. Space is limited and applications will be taken on a first-come first-serve basis.
