NEW!! Time to Button Up New Hampshire!
Free Local Weatherization Workshops available:
• Concord / City Council Chambers / Tuesday January 12 @ 6:45 p.m.
Other dates are available around the state, this is the most local one, see information below.
Clean Air-Cool Planet and the New England Carbon Challenge
are proud to announce the pilot launch of Button Up
NH, a highly successful home weatherization workshop
pioneered in Vermont and now available in New Hampshire.
Button Up NH presenters will conduct nine free home weatherization workshops in regional
hubs across the state this winter, including New London, Lebanon,
Grafton, Plymouth, Sanbornton, Concord, Rye, Atkinson and Dover.
Evening workshops are conducted by qualified home energy experts who will introduce
homeowner-participants to the basics of home energy budgets and the value of home weatherization.
Each workshop will include information on how simple household adjustments
and modest investments can lead to significant energy savings over the long haul.
Workshop topics will include: residential heat use and loss, the short term benefits
of simple do-it-yourself weatherization, the value of a professional home energy audit,
the long term benefits of extensive professional energy retrofits, and the technical
and financial resources available to make it happen.
Button Up NH workshops are free and open to the public. Button
Up was developed in Vermont and adapted in partnership with
the Sustainable Energy Resource Group (SERG). The Button-Up
program was originally created as Button Up Vermont in 2008
by Central Vermont Community Action Council with the support
of Efficiency Vermont and the Vermont Energy and Climate Action
Network, and with funding from the Regional Greenhouse Gas
Initiative.

Button Up NH Coordinator, at (603) 422-6464, ext. 115 or gdow@cleanair-coolplanet.org
