No-Cost Energy Efficiency Kit

Small Changes Make a Big Difference.

Save Energy, Save Money

Our No-Cost Energy Efficiency Kit – valued at up to $100 – helps renters and homeowners lower energy usage with easy-to-install upgrades like LED bulbs, weather-stripping, and faucet aerators, as well as useful tools like a smart power strip. (Exact contents of kit may vary depending on availability.) These items are designed to reduce your utility bills and your environmental impact.
