Minnesota Power offers rebates to make an AHEA more affordable. You must work with a participating building diagnostics auditor to qualify for the $100 rebate for non-electrically heated homes or a $200 rebate for electrically heated homes. See additional rebate information here. Because the cost of the service varies by degree of analysis, level of expertise, the age of the home and travel distance, you are encouraged to contact multiple participating auditors for a price quote.
