Anyone living in Johnson County may be eligible for a free home energy audit from Green Iowa AmeriCorps.

Johnson County residents who own a home or apartment can take part in this program. Renters may also participate if granted permission by their landlord. The audit assesses how much energy a residence uses and identifies steps to improve efficiency. Weatherization updates can save a household anywhere from $50-$350 annually, with improvements lasting up to 25 years.

The program, which has been available in Iowa City for seven years has just recently expanded to residents throughout all of Johnson County. To learn more, or to sign up for a free audit, call 319-339-5399 or click here.
