Weatherization describes the services and energy conservation measures applied to a dwelling to help reduce energy use. Proper weatherization results in a more comfortable home (especally during the hottest and coldest times of the year) and decreased utility bills. From installing simple measures such as weather stripping and storm windows, low-income weatherization has evolved into a technically sophisticated approach that is based on site-specific diagnostic testing and targeted treatments.
