Welcome
Many elderly and low income homeowners within the City of Austin struggle to pay their utility bills, and often, those bills are a disproportionate amount of their income. Typically their homes are inefficient with regard to resources such as energy and water. These homes can contain outdated appliances and HVAC systems and they are not properly sealed and insulated. Toilets, faucets, and related appliances often leak and consume large volumes of water. These problems cost the residents money and reduce their quality of life. Furthermore, the inefficiencies strain energy and water resources and contribute to pollution. As energy and water costs continue to increase, the problem will worsen.
