Weatherization & Related Repair
KCHA works with private contractors to provide weatherization and related repair services for people with low incomes. The projects help improve energy efficiency for privately owned single-family, multifamily, and mobile homes.
For weatherization and related repairs, KCHA may work with firms already under contract or solicit bids using a competitive process.
