Insulation Rebates

New Mexico Gas Company offers a rebate for 25% of the cost, up to $500, when you have a participating contractor add insulation to your home’s attic or roof.
Was your home built before 1990?
If so, you probably need insulation. Homes built before 1990 have an average of 4–6 inches of insulation, while newer homes have 12–18 inches of insulation.
Properly sealing and insulating your home can help you keep your comfort up and your energy costs down. You’ll reduce outdoor noise, control humidity, and prevent pollen, dust and insects from entering your home, plus:
Get up to 20% savings on your heating and cooling costs.
Keep your home warmer in winter and cooler in summer.

When you are having roof work done, your participating contractor can install insulation by:
Create access holes by removing sections of the roof deck, blow insulation into the roof cavity, then seal the roof and complete work.
Convert the roof cavity or attic space into an unvented, conditioned space by sealing the exterior parapet vents and adding qualifying insulation. Describe the work on the invoice.
