From a news release issued by Focus on Energy:
HUDSON, Wis. (June 17, 2009) — Mobile home residents in the St. Croix area who purchase their gas and electricity from utilities who participate in the Focus on Energy Program, including St. Croix Gas, River Falls Municipal Utilities and Xcel Energy, have the opportunity for a free home energy evaluation and possible free energy efficiency improvements.
This initiative, called the Mobile Home Duct Sealing Pilot, is part of Focus on Energy’s Home Performance with ENERGY STAR® Program, and is designed to create cost effective energy savings in mobile homes by testing for and correcting a certain set of inefficiencies, primarily leaky duct work. All testing and work is free to the mobile home owner.
The Mobile Home Duct Sealing Pilot, like Home Performance energy evaluations, uses the most advanced, state-of-the-art equipment to test homes, identify problems and implement recommended improvements. Duct sealing and other improvements are then tested to ensure the work is done to program standards. Partnering consultants and contractors delivering the Pilot were selected through a competitive bidding process. All the services are free to the homeowner, and the entire process can be completed in one day.
