Colorado’s Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP)
No-cost weatherization services for qualified residents and homes.
Our Weatherization Assistance Program helps income-qualified Coloradans save money, increase comfort, and improve their homes and the environment with proven energy conservation solutions.
What is weatherization? Weatherization protects homes from the elements, including cold, heat, water, and wind. It also reduces energy use and improves your home’s energy efficiency. For example, weatherizing your home can include installing insulation and sealing air leaks to help maintain a comfortable indoor temperature and improve indoor air quality. Together, these measures can reduce your energy bills, make your home more comfortable, and increase residents’ safety.

Income Eligibility
Note: Meeting income requirements alone does not guarantee services will be provided. Program availability may depend on current funding and may vary based on your utility provider. Eligible households may be placed on a waiting list, with timelines varying based on program demand and capacity. Please contact your local weatherization service provider for the most current information about program status and estimated wait times.
Income eligibility is determined by county, household size, and household income or through current enrollment in any of the assistance programs listed below. The WAP Income Eligibility Chart indicates the highest eligible income level for each county based on area median income, state median income, or the federal poverty line.
