Met-Ed, Penelec, Penn Power Extend Home Energy Makeover Contest

FirstEnergy Corp.'s Metropolitan Edison Company (Met-Ed), Pennsylvania Electric Company (Penelec) and Pennsylvania Power Company (Penn Power) have extended their Home Energy Makeover Contest contest deadline to May 1.  The contest will provide thousands of dollars in energy efficiency improvements and prizes to three customers.
            Participants must have a home that is at least one year old and in need of energy efficiency improvements, including new heating and air conditioning systems, upgraded insulation, efficient windows, air sealing, efficient lighting and energy-efficient appliances.  
            Upgrades for winning homes will be determined based on the results of an energy assessment by a certified energy auditor.
            The contest marks the start of marketing efforts aimed at increasing awareness of the benefits of energy-efficient remodeling and new construction for Pennsylvania residents and businesses.
            This contest coincides with the launch of two new residential energy efficiency programs by FirstEnergy: the Whole House Program and the Energy Efficient New Homes Program.
            As part of a suite of programs from FirstEnergy's Pennsylvania utilities, these programs will provide financial incentives and support for builders, remodelers, energy auditors and homeowners interested in improving the energy efficiency of their homes.
            For more information on FirstEnergy's Pennsylvania residential energy efficiency programs and contest details are posted on the Home Energy Makeover Contest webpage or call 800-537-6745.
