Weatherization Assistance (Alaska Housing Finance Corporation)

Last updated August 2026

Alaska's Weatherization program makes energy-efficiency repairs at no cost to income-eligible households. The work can include air sealing, insulation, and heating-system fixes that lower your bills for years. It is run by the Alaska Housing Finance Corporation, AHFC, through regional providers. To apply, contact your regional weatherization provider, or call AHFC at 907-338-6100 or 800-478-2432 toll free in Alaska.

The best part for many families is who can apply. Both homeowners and renters may take part, including people living in rentals and condos. So you do not have to own your home to get help lowering your energy costs.

Eligibility runs on income. Your household income must be at or below AHFC's income limits, which you can review on the AHFC website. Because the program sets those limits, the surest step is to check the current figures with AHFC or a provider rather than guessing.

There is a rule about homes done before. Homes weatherized before May 14, 2008 can apply again for re-weatherization, but they are a lower priority than homes that were never done. If your home was done long ago, you can still get in line, just expect a wait behind first-time homes.

The repairs are chosen to save the most energy for your specific home, so an assessment comes first. The provider looks at your home, then does the work that helps the most. Because the fixes stay with the house, the savings keep coming season after season.

The service is provided at no cost to qualified applicants. Pair weatherization with the Heating Assistance Program, which helps with this season's bill while the home is being fixed for the long run. You can also dial 2-1-1 for other local utility help.
