Energize Phoenix to Extend Free Home Energy Check-up Offer‏

Energize Phoenix is extending the limited time opportunity to receive a free home energy check-up for owner-occupied homes that qualify for the APS Home Performance with ENERGY STAR(R) program within the Energize Phoenix program boundaries, a 10-mile stretch along light rail from approximately 44th and Washington Streets to Central Avenue and Camelback Road.

Home energy check-ups completed now through December 31, 2011 by an approved Energize Phoenix contractor are eligible to receive a $99 home energy check-up rebate. The deadline for receipt of a completed Residential Rebate Match Form with applicable attachments at the address listed on the Residential Rebate Match Form is January 31, 2011.

If the energy check-up identifies money saving opportunities through efficiency upgrades, you can take advantage of Energize Phoenix incentives. Energize Phoenix will match most existing APS rebates. Homeowners that are low-to moderate-income may qualify for additional incentives.

Common energy efficiency projects include:

* heating and cooling system upgrades

* duct leakage repair, air leaks and sealing

* attic insulation

* shade screens

* solar water heater upgrades

Interested parties can find out if they qualify by entering their address on the website http://www.energizephx.com or call the Energize Phoenix hotline at 602-495-5275 to learn more. Additionally, conditional grants are available to owners of apartment complexes serving low-to moderate-income residents.

Energize Phoenix

Energize Phoenix is a program to save energy, create jobs and transform a diverse array of neighborhoods along a 10-mile stretch of the light rail line. It was launched by the city of Phoenix through a $25 million federal grant for the U.S. Department of Energy Better Buildings Neighborhood Program and the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), and is administered in partnership with Arizona State University and support from Arizona Public Service.
