Weatherization Assistance Program

The Weatherization Assistance Program performs installation of energy efficient items to conserve energy in Macomb County homes.

Weatherization improvements reduce energy use and can save an average of 30 percent on heat/utility bills. A home energy audit determines which items will be installed. Energy saving services may include: 

  • Wall insulation
  • Attic insulation and ventilation 
  • Floor/foundation insulation 
  • Air leakage reduction 
  • Furnace repair or replacement 
  • Other energy saving measures

Eligibility

Macomb County families and individuals who are interested in having their home weatherized must meet eligibility guidelines:

  • Services are free to those who qualify.

  • Recipients of FIP or SSI who have received benefits during any of the past 12 months are automatically income eligible. 
  • Applicants must be residents of Macomb County. If you do not live in Macomb County, please contact Michigan Community Action or call 1-855-MI-ACTION to find your local Weatherization Assistance Program. 
  • Weatherization crews cannot work on any home that is for sale.
