Grand Prize Winner of HomeRx Energy Efficiency Makeover Contest


4CORE is proud to announce the grand prize winner of the HomeRx Energy Efficiency Makeover Contest. Launched in May 2012, the HomeRx Energy Makeover Contest has now awarded three local families with home energy efficiency improvements to enhance comfort and reduce energy consumption.

4CORE’s selection committee chose La Plata County homeowner Emily Lloyd as the grand prize winner for the contest. Lloyd will receive a free comprehensive energy audit by WeatherCo to identify potential energy savings and other areas of improvement. Insulation is provided by ProBuild and air sealing services will be provided by 4CORE. The Grand Prize is valued at $1,500.

“My daughter and I were fortunate enough to receive assistance from the Regional Housing Alliance to purchase our town home, but our electric baseboard heat costs over $300 in the coldest winter months,” said Emily. “We are really looking forward to having our home 'made over' with energy saving, bill-deducing solutions.”

The HomeRx Energy Makeover Contest was created to help raise awareness of 4CORE’s energy efficiency programs. 4CORE provides resources for homeowners to save money on rising utility bills, while addressing common health and safety risks for occupants. In addition to providing certified weatherization services, 4CORE helps local residents reduce the use of natural resources, save energy and costs, and enjoy a better quality of life.

“4CORE’s programs and activities have directly helped residents save thousands each year in utility bills,” said Gregg Dubit, Executive Director of 4CORE. “The HomeRx Makeover Contest is an extension of our commitment to promote and maintain a vibrant, resilient and thriving community through expanded programs and partnerships.”

4CORE would like to thank its partners and supporters of the HomeRx Makeover Contest, including WeatherCo, ProBuild, Treehouse Communications, Energy Check LLC, 810 Pixels, Annadel Building Solutions LLC, and Verified Green.
