Whole Home Health demonstration program that supports income-qualified household with electrification, weatherization and efficiency, and health and safety retrofits.
Description
City staff are actively engaged in a demonstration program (Whole Home Health) designed to bring cooling, weatherization, and electrification to income-qualified households in Longmont. The objectives of the demonstration are to gather data about housing types, project measures and costs, operational costs and utility bill impacts, and other resources that can be leveraged to offset the high costs of meaningful upgrades in single family, mobile, and small multifamily homes. The results of the demonstration will inform program scaling and regional implementation.
