Through a partnership with UCAIR, the Lawrence T. & Janet T. Dee Foundation and the HEAT Program, Weber State's Empower Northern Utah program is offering over 90 free, and 150 discounted Nest Thermostat E’s. 

Why upgrade to a smart thermostat? 

Smart thermostats make it simple to save energy on heating and cooling costs. The Nest E Thermostat can cut heating bills, saving the average U.S. household over $130 a year. 

Smart thermostats save you money, are energy-efficient, and help improve air quality in your home (by reducing the combustion of natural gas). Using less natural gas and electricity generated by fossil fuels also reduces greenhouse gasses.

Free thermostats for low- and moderate-income qualified households are distributed through the Home Energy Assistance Target (HEAT) program. To learn more about participating through the HEAT program, view the HEAT Participant information page.
