Louisiana’s Weatherization program reduces energy cost for low-income households by increasing the energy efficiency of their homes, while ensuring their health and safety.
Local agencies use energy audits and diagnostic tools-such as blower doors and infrared cameras-to identify the most effective improvements. Services may include sealing air leaks, insulation, repairing ducts, and tuning or repairing heating systems.
Low-income households in Louisiana may be eligible, including renters or homeowners, with priority for seniors, people with disablities, and families with children.
Louisiana has various weatherization programs aimed at improving energy efficient homes, particularly for low-income families.
Given Louisiana's hot and humid climate, weatherization efforts often focus on controlling indoor humidity and improving insulation to reduce energy consumption from air conditioning.
The Weatherization Assistance Program, funded by the federal government and administered by the state, assists eligible households in making necessary updates to improve energy effiency.
Typical weatherization measures Louisiana include sealing air leaks, adding insulation, repairing or replacing heating and cooling systems, and ensuring proper ventilation to improve indoor air quality.
