HOME INSULATION

Efficiency Maine Home Rebate Program

We've all been there: you come home from a long day, kick off your shoes and sink into your couch—and the air around you is so frigid that it feels like you're sitting in a freezer. You realize your house drafty, uncomfortable, and just COLD!

Home Insulation might be the answer to your problem.


Why does this matter? Because insulation helps keep your Maine home at a comfortable temperature. It also makes sure that the air in your home stays clean and healthy for you and your family to breathe, which means that it helps make your home more energy efficient and can save you money on utilities.

If you live in Maine, there is good news: the Efficiency Maine tax rebate program gives up to $9,000 back on energy efficiency improvements made to your house. This includes things like insulating attics, cathedral ceilings, all wall cavities, rim joists, basement walls, and crawl spaces.

Types Of Upgrades

  • Air Sealing

    Air sealing is a process that improves the energy efficiency of a home.


    It involves installing weatherstripping around doors and windows and using caulk to seal cracks in the walls and ceiling, which reduces unwanted air infiltration into the house.


    The result of air sealing is more comfortable and efficient living spaces, which means you don't have to turn up the thermostat as much on a cold day or crank up your air conditioning system as high on a hot summer night. This can save you money over time by reducing your heating and cooling bills.

  • Basement Insulation

    Basement insulation is a great way to gain efficiency in your home. By insulating the basement, you can prevent heat from escaping through your foundation and keep it in your home. This will save you money on heating costs as well as help you feel more comfortable.


    Basement insulation is easy to install and can be done by anyone with basic knowledge of how to use tools. If you are interested in installing basement insulation in your home, contact us today for more information about our services!

  • Wall Insulation

    Wall insulation is a great way to make your home more efficient. It helps with temperature control and can save you money on your energy bill.


    Wall insulation works by creating an airtight seal between the inside and outside of your house. This keeps warm air from escaping during the winter, and keeps cool air from escaping during the summer. Because it's an airtight seal, it also helps keep moisture out of your home.


    This helps reduce heating bills in the winter, because less heat is needed to keep the house at a comfortable temperature—saving you even more money!

  • Attic Insulation

    Attic insulation is one of the most important parts of a home's energy efficiency. A home with good attic insulation will stay cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter, saving you money on your utility bills.


    Attic insulation is a material that helps keep heat from escaping through your roof and walls. There are two main types: blown-in fiberglass and batts (also known as rolls).


    Blown-in fiberglass is lightweight and easy to install, making it ideal for DIYers. It's also fairly cost-effective. Batts are more expensive upfront, but they're more durable than blown-in fiberglass and require less maintenance over time. 


    Both types are effective at keeping heat inside your house during the winter months and outside during the summer months!
