Weatherization Assistance Program (FloridaCommerce)

Florida’s Weatherization Assistance Program arranges energy-efficiency services through local providers. Start with the county agency to ask about eligibility, the waiting list and the work it can consider.

Who can apply

The program serves qualifying low-income households. The local provider assesses the application and the home; financial eligibility alone does not establish which work will be performed.

What help is available

Approved assistance consists of selected energy-efficiency services. It is not a cash grant for a homeowner to spend on an unrestricted renovation.

Documents to prepare

  • Prepare household income information.
  • Have your address, utility records and ownership or tenancy information available.
  • Ask the provider about its current checklist and any owner-consent requirement before arranging a visit.

How to get started

  1. Contact the local office

    Find your county in the weatherization provider directory.

  2. Request an application

    FloridaCommerce says applications are available from local providers and are not available online through its directory.

  3. Discuss the property

    Explain your heating or cooling concerns and follow the provider’s assessment and scheduling instructions.

After applying

Confirm the scope of approved work with the provider. Ask before paying for work yourself; this program’s intake does not establish that a private repair bill will be reimbursed.

Common questions

Can I apply through a statewide online form?

FloridaCommerce’s directory says weatherization applications must be obtained from local providers.

Is this the same as LIHEAP?

No. Weatherization concerns selected efficiency services; LIHEAP concerns eligible energy bills.

Will every requested repair be approved?

The provider determines eligibility and available services. Ask about the specific problem at your home.
