Standing Ready for North Dakota Winters

Weatherization improvements help households by reducing heating costs, improving indoor comfort, maintaining safer living conditions, and reducing energy waste.
Weatherization professionals help ensure homes remain resilient through the coldest months.
Real Homes. Real Missions. Real Impact.
Weatherization work across this region has transformed homes that once struggled against North Dakota’s harsh climate.
In Tower City, crews repaired ductwork, rebuilt insulation systems, and replaced failing windows in a deteriorating mobile home. After the project, testing showed the home's air leakage had been reduced by more than half, dramatically improving comfort and safety.
In Fargo, a home received attic insulation, foundation insulation, and extensive air sealing. The improvements dramatically reduced air leakage and made the home noticeably warmer and more energy efficient.
In Milnor, a homeowner saw major improvements after crews repaired insulation issues and replaced a failing exterior door. The homeowner later shared that the difference in how the home held heat was immediately noticeable.
These projects show how weatherization professionals strengthen homes and protect communities throughout southeastern North Dakota.
