Free Home Weatherization and Energy Saving Help From Met-Ed
Met-Ed runs a home weatherization program for FirstEnergy Pennsylvania customers with lower incomes, sending a trained educator to your home to find why your electric bills are high and installing energy-saving improvements at no cost to you.
To qualify you must be a FirstEnergy Pennsylvania customer with average electric usage of at least 500 kWh per month, minimum annual usage of 6,000 kWh, and a gross (before tax) household income at or below 200% of 2026 Federal Poverty Guidelines. The yearly income limits before taxes are $31,920 for one person, $43,280 for two, $54,640 for three, $66,000 for four, $77,360 for five, $88,720 for six, $100,080 for seven and $111,440 for eight. For each additional person, add $11,000.
A trained educator completes an in-home energy evaluation to locate areas throughout your home that may be less energy efficient, then works with you on a personalized plan to save energy and money. You may also receive improvements such as attic and/or wall insulation, caulking and weatherstripping around doors and windows, refrigerator and freezer testing and possible replacement, electric water heater inspection, replacement of inefficient window or wall air conditioners, and energy-saving light bulbs. The improvements that you are eligible to receive will be determined during your home energy evaluation. No payment is required for these services.
To apply, complete an online application or call the Dollar Energy Fund at 1-888-282-6816. You will be required to provide proof of income:
- Your most recent household income tax return(s)
- Copies of pay stubs for all working members in your household for the last 30 days
Once your application is processed, FirstEnergy is notified that you qualify and assigns your job to a WARM contractor in your area, who will contact you to schedule your home evaluation. The timeframe for scheduling your home evaluation can vary depending on the current number of applicants. To check on your application, log in to view the status if you applied online, or call 1-888-282-6816 if you applied through the Dollar Energy Fund.
If you rent your home, you can still take part with your landlord's approval. Print, complete and submit the landlord agreement form, which is also available in Spanish, by mail to FirstEnergy Corp., Attn: Human Services, PO Box 16001, Reading, PA 19612-9977, or by email to pawarm@firstenergycorp.com.
