On April 13th, C & V Home Improvement, Inc., was one of a handful of contractors selected to provide weatherization services for qualifying families as part of Kansas Weatherization Assistance Program. As a KWAP contractor, C & V partners with Interfaith Housing Services (www.ihs-housing.org) to assist residents in making their homes more efficient; thus lower their monthly utility costs. The program is quite simple…homeowners and renters apply for KWAP services. Once eligibility is determined, an IHS energy auditor will conduct a series of test to determine inefficiencies and make recommended improvements. IHS then contracts with C & V to make the necessary repairs. Typical work includes replacing broken windows, insulating walls and attics, weatherstripping around doors and plumbing chases, insulating and installing a vapor barrior in crawl spaces, and sealing foundation cracks and voids. Eligibility is based on family size, income, and other factors. To learn more, contact Interfaith Housing at 877-477-5927.
