Energy Efficiency Upgrade

Incentives increase residents' comfort and savings by upgrading with our energy efficiency recommendations. Along with increased property value, energy efficient equipment gives you another benefit to offer potential residents. Ask your multi-housing account manager for details on how Progress Energy can provide and help pay a portion of your per-unit costs on the following services:

• Duct Check: Central duct system leaks can cause energy loss and added expense. If we can determine that leaks are present and we have access to the associated duct system, we'll seal the joints and connections and pay a portion of any repairs that are needed.  
   
• Insulation Check: If the insulation in your apartment homes is R-12 or less, you're eligible for our Insulation Check. We'll help pay a portion of the cost to upgrade your property's insulation to R-19, once it's recommended through an attic inspection. 
    
• High-Efficiency Heat Pump Rebate: Receive a per-unit rebate when you install a high-efficiency heat pump. Your account manager can help you determine the efficiency level that's right for your property.
