A medida que se acerca el invierno, preparar tu casa puede ayudarte a mantenerte cómoda y ahorrar dinero. Además, considera pedir prestada 1 cámara térmica de la biblioteca para encontrar fácilmente los puntos exactos de tu casa por donde se está perdiendo más calor.

Did you know that there are thousands of dollars in federal tax credits for home energy efficiency and renewables!

Want to learn more about what qualifies for the tax credit and how to claim it? Head to the Eco-City website! at AlexandriaVA.gov/Eco-City #ecocityalx #ecocityhomes

Federal Tax Credits are Expiring Soon.
Heating and AC use about half of a home’s energy, so drafts around doors and windows are wasting energy and raise your bills!
Check out a thermal camera from the library or hire a professional for energy audit (eligible for a federal tax credit of up to $150!)
