The Proposed HOME STAR Retrofit Incentive Program

HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT THE HOME STAR PROGRAM?

It's being incorporated into the Job's Bill as a climate component. In a nutshell the proposed program is a program to make american homes more efficient through auditing and retrofitting them to be more efficient. HOMESTAR Gold level has provisions in it which give homeowners cash incentives to make changes. The home performance industry is doing its best to see that this legislation is passed. They are also trying to reframe the unfortunate phrase “cash for caulkers”. This legislation goes well beyond caulk and would give property owners rebates and other incentives to weatherize their homes and make other improvements to cut their energy use.

Please look at more details on the Home Star Coalition website. This is great information to share with your clients and others.
