Home Weatherization Assistance Program (HWAP)
Home Weatherization Assistance Program (HWAP)
The Home Weatherization Assistance Program (HWAP) provides eligible Ohioans with assistance to improve the energy efficiency of their homes and reduce their energy costs. Ohioans participating in the HWAP will receive a home inspection from identifying the services necessary to improve their home’s energy efficiency.
Who is Eligible for HWAP?
Ohioans with a household income at or below 200% of the federal poverty guidelines are eligible for the program.
Priority is given to Ohioans who are older than age of 60, those with disabilities, those with children in the home, and households with a high energy usage and/or burden. All families who have received assistance any time during the last 12 months under Supplemental Security Income (SSI), Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), or Home Energy Assistance (HEAP) (does not include Emergency HEAP) are automatically income eligible for weatherization services. Please remember an application must be submitted to apply for services.
To apply for HWAP, consumers should contact us. Home Energy Assistance Program (HEAP) applicants may apply for HWAP by checking the box for weatherization on the online application at www.energyhelp.ohio.gov.
