City launches program to cut homeowners' energy bills

A city program to make homes more energy efficient at little or no cost to homeowners is underway.

Retrofit Racine launched in March and work is underway on select properties, according to the program's website.

The program is available to anyone in the city with a home built between 1946 and 1975. Retrofit Racine will cover the upfront costs of making homes more efficient, and homeowners will pay back the costs using savings on their energy bill.

If you're interested, sign up for the program at: http://www.retrofitracine.org

  2. My house was built in 1917 and sure could use some more insulation in the walls. Why only 1946-1975?
