The DIY Home Energy program has been improved in order to help Okotokians save energy and money! Request the Energy Assessment kit to help you identify your energy losses. If you like free stuff, after you request the kit, you can take a look at the EasyFix list in step 3 below and choose from the FREE items like LED light bulbs, window & door weatherization kits, and outlet insulation to help you make your home more efficient and save you money on energy bills. Kits are loaned out for one week.
Just wondering about your home's radon levels? You can request to borrow a stand-alone radon monitor to use for one week to see if your radon levels warrant purchasing the recommended 3 month test. See the links to information about radon at the bottom of the page. Follow the steps below for booking.
The EasyFix program will only be in effect until we run out of products, so book your DIY Kit quickly!
