AEP Health & Safety Repairs Wrap up

AEP's Health & Safety Repairs program has been completed.  In all, $329,000 was spent on 127 AEP customers' homes.  The program was designed to help pay for health & safety repairs on Weatherized homes.  A few highlights:


  • 65 homes received new heating appliances because existing units were operating in an unsafe manner.
  • 65 homes received repairs to mitigate existing moisture problems (installation of vapor barriers, roof repairs, sump pump installations, plumbing repairs, etc.)
  • 34 damaged or unsafe water heaters were replaced.
  • Over 160,000 cfm@50Pa was air sealed in the participating homes
  • Over 78,000 square feet of attic insulation was installed
  • Over 41,000 square feet of wall insulation was installed
  • Just under 1,500 feet of pipe insulation was installed
  • Over 22,000 square feet of foundation walls were insulated
AEP's service area is the north east corner of the state, so there were fewer CAPs participating in this program.  The final funding breakdown was as follows:



At this time there is no word about a continuation of this program in the future.
