Weatherization Program

Thank you for helping to weatherize homes in our community. 

The following resources should give you everything you need to successfully help our customers weatherize their homes. 

• Customer-facing insulation air sealing, and windows page with program eligibility details
• Residential program application (printable version)
• Customer Payment Designation form (optional)
• Weatherization specifications, including prescriptive air sealing requirements
• Weatherization installation checklist, including prescriptive air sealing requirements
• Weatherization Oregon code FAQs
• Self-inspection form and instructions on how to use it
• Window rebate and loan calculator

The following documentation is required for processing payment through our weatherization program: 

• Weatherization project completion form
• Copy of a contractor's invoice to the customer, describing work completed, order/purchase date and installed cost
• Verification of performance (example). For windows, include either the NFRC window sticker or the manufacturer's order confirmation. If a window does not have an NFRC rating (for example, insulated glass units or IGUs), the cost of the unverified window may be included in a loan (upon approved credit) if it is a part of an installation of eligible windows. For doors, include a copy of the ENERGY STAR® product list showing the product, or product information showing it meets ENERGY STAR specifications. 
• Contractor Invoice Summary, Exhibit F (Note: This is only required if a contractor's invoice is missing critical information, including pre-condition R-value and final R-value (for insulation jobs), original window types (for window jobs) and square footage of insulation and/or windows).
• Knob and Tube Wiring Inspection Report (Note: This is only required for insulation jobs where knob and tube wiring is present.)

Additional information:

• Attic and wall insulation jobs require in-progress verifications on the day of the install.
• We require three working days' notice for an in-progress verification. Please provide additional notice, if possible.
• If one of our EWEB project managers is unavailable for the inspection, another inspector can fill in if you provide us with advance notice.
• If an in-progress inspection is not able to be performed, photos must be provided confirming that the work satisfies the applicable items in the weatherization installation checklists.
• Prescriptive air sealing can only be done in combination with an existing attic or crawlspace insulation project and must follow the requirements of the weatherization specifications and checklist.
• We allow skylight upgrades as part of the weatherization program if the skylights meet the same program requirements as other windows.
