URRD HVAC Waiver Pilot Program Summary
Overview of the Program:
Participants in this pilot program are able to use URRD funds in excess of the normal $3,000.00
limit for a single household, in order to repair or replace an existing HVAC unit in emergency
situations. Under this program the limit for these jobs will be $6,000.00.
Guidelines:
• Up to 20% of a participating agency’s URRD allocation for the fiscal year may be utilized
in this pilot program. An alternate percentage may be negotiated with ACAA, if
required.
• Waivers must be reserved for heating and cooling emergencies and must not preclude
or supplant the weatherization process for clients who qualify for weatherization
services.
• The minimum energy efficiency rating for replacement units is 14 SEER.
• Participating agencies agree to provide an analysis of eligible clients left unserved at the
end of the pilot program.
• All other existing guidelines of the URRD fund source remain the same.
Procedure:
1. Before any work is performed, an URRD HVAC Waiver application (see below) must be
submitted by email to the Energy Program Manager at ACAA.
2. Approval or denial of the application will be remitted via return email.
3. Client data for each job performed in this program must be entered into GMS directly or
by monthly batch, in the same manner as other URRD jobs.
4. All funds included in these waiver applications will count toward the agreed-upon
funding limit for the pilot program, as defined in the contract.
5. When the pilot program ends, each participating agency will be required to provide an
estimate of the number of clients that were left unserved.
