Has the cold weather caused your heating bills to rise?
If you are an NSTAR customer, there are rebates available to help reduce your total cost in making your home more energy efficient.
Was your home built before 1960? If so, there is a good chance your exterior walls are not insulated. If you are an NSAR customer and you are thinking about adding wall insulation, attic insulation or air sealing to your home you might be eligible for rebates up to $2,000 from NSTAR for these home upgrades.
Thinking about replacing your windows? NSTAR has a replacement window rebate program. Replacement windows can lower your annual heating costs by up to 15 percent and NSTAR gas heating customers are also eligible for a $10 rebate on every window replaced with an ENERGY STAR-labeled window with a U-factor of .35 or less.
For more information check out NSTAR's website at: http://www.nstaronline.com/residential/energy_efficiency/gas_programs/
Not an NSTAR customer? Don't worry, there are other options for you.
