More than 40 percent of the energy consumed in your home goes to heating and cooling. Increase your insulation and you’ll reduce your utility bills. Improved indoor air quality. Properly installed insulation means fewer gaps and voids through which outside air can come into your home. This helps avoid dirt, dust, pollen, and other impurities that negatively affect indoor air quality. Improved resale position. Increased insulation gives you a more comfortable, higher-quality home with better indoor air quality and reduced utility bills. This translates into higher resale value. Right now, Provo Power is offering rebates when you increase insulation in your home. Upgrade your attic or ceiling insulation and get a rebate of $0.10 or $0.15 per square foot, depending on the amount installed. For outside walls, get $0.25 per square foot installed.
