EXISTING MANUFACTURED HOMESNO-COST SOLUTIONS AND CASH INCENTIVES FOR ENERGY EFFICIENCY

Take advantage of Energy Trust of Oregon’s no-cost, energy-saving improvements that help owners and renters increase the energy efficiency of their existing manufactured homes. You can receive cash incentives when you make additional improvements.

Energy-efficiency upgrades can help:

• Reduce drafts and increase comfort• Save on your energy costs• Maintain a cleaner, quieter and healthier home

Ways to save

No-cost improvementsEnergy Trust trade ally contractors, who receive training and support from Energy Trust, can help you discover no-cost ways to save. An Energy Trust trade ally can visit your home and test for areas of heat loss. Your trade ally contractor may seal these areas and, if possible, repair your duct system at no charge.

Your contractor may also install LED bulbs, high-performance showerheads and faucet aerators in your bathroom and kitchen. No-cost improvements can only be made one time per home, regardless of new ownership.

Cash incentivesAchieve greater energy savings when you make qualifying upgrades to your insulation, windows, and heating or water heating system. You’ll receive Energy Trust cash incentives that help offset your out-of-pocket costs. Incentives are paid directly to the owner of the existing manufactured home or property. Installations must be made by an Energy Trust trade ally contractor or actively licensed contractor. There are also cash incentives for self-installing qualifying floor insulation or a smart thermostat.

Who is eligible?

Oregon residents who own or rent an existing manufactured home that is not on a permanent attached foundation may qualify to receive no-cost improvements and cash-back incentives from Energy Trust (other cash-back incentives may apply to homes on a permanent attached foundation). Your existing manufactured home must be prequalified before installation can begin.

If you do not own your existing manufactured home, the property owner or manager must approve the project before it can begin. You must heat your existing manufactured home with electricity or gas from Portland General Electric, Pacific Power, NW Natural, Cascade Natural Gas or Avista to be eligible.
