W.A.P. - Bed Stuy Restoration Plaza

Restoration’s Weatherization Program (WAP) is one of the longest standing and most successful programs of its kind in New York City, with a record of serving over 10,000 low-income households.

The program helps both landlords and tenants to conserve energy, save money, and improve health and safety conditions.

Supported by the New York State Division of Housing and Community Renewal, the goal of the program is to reduce energy costs and improve quality of life for low-income residents. Services include installation of new windows, insulation, upgrade of heating systems, and the use of energy efficient appliances such as air conditioners, refrigerators, power-strips and LED bulbs.

By “weatherizing” hundreds of housing units each year, these measures deliver ongoing energy efficiency and savings leading to millions of dollars of impact on an annual basis.
