Program details

How it works

Penquis says HEAP helps eligible households pay a portion of annual home heating costs through a one-time seasonal benefit sent directly to heating vendors.

What it covers

The program is for home heating costs; the page does not describe home-hardening construction work.

Timing and funding

The page does not state a dollar amount, match requirement, or application deadline.

Why it is included here

This is an existing county-specific home-services program documented on Penquis’s official site, but it does not directly fund hardening projects. It is still relevant as a service that helps homeowners manage weather-related household risk and energy stability.
