Governor Kelly proclaims October Energy Action Month, designates October 30 Weatherization Day

Governor Laura Kelly joined Kansas Housing Resources Corporation (KHRC) staff and community partners in proclaiming October Energy Action Month and October 30 Weatherization Day in Kansas. Energy Action Month is an annual campaign to raise awareness of the statewide Weatherization Assistance Program and encourage Kansans to reduce energy usage and save on utility bills as cold weather approaches.

 

Weatherization reduces utility costs by improving energy efficiency while ensuring health and safety. Services are customized for each individual residence but may include:

  • Weather stripping
  • Caulking around doors and windows and other air leaks
  • Repair or replace inefficient or dangerous furnaces
  • Adding insulation to walls, ceilings, and floors
  • Lighting and ventilation upgrades

Income-qualified renters and homeowners in Kansas can apply to receive FREE weatherization upgrades to reduce energy costs by improving the energy efficiency of their homes while ensuring their health and safety.

 

 

Spread the word! Watch and share KHRC’s weatherization overview videos in English and Spanish to see how the process works.

For more information on Energy Awareness or the Weatherization Program in Kansas please contact Tyler Wilson, KHRC Weatherization Program Manager at 785-940-4189.Weatherization services are installed free-of-charge for qualifying low-income homeowners and renters.
