Ceiling Insulation Grant
Please
login to your utility account and request a "Free Home Energy Audit" under the "Requests" tab to begin. You may also call 850-891-4968 to begin.
Standard Grant (80/20): The City will pay 80% of the installed cost, up to a maximum of $400, for all residential customers.
Low-Income Grant (100): Customers who qualify based on income may receive 100% of the installed cost, up to a maximum of $500.
Who May Participate: Any City of Tallahassee residential electric customer (and some commercial electric customers) with suitable attics. Customers who own or rent their residences or businesses may apply.
Your energy auditor will calculate the exact job cost, and provide a list of participating insulation contractors who agree to install at that low cost or free amount.
To qualify for either of the grants above, the total installed cost must be at least $500.
We've raised the insulation target levels:
- R38 if you heat with a natural gas furnace, oil furnace or electric heat pump. (R38 is about 15 inches of blown white fiberglass or about 10 1/2 inches of loose-fill cellulose insulation)
- R49 if you heat with a central electric resistance furnace.
