HomeWise

homewise logoThe Fairfax County HomeWise program educates, empowers, and enables residents to make changes that reduce energy use, water use, and associated costs in their homes. If you have questions about the program, please email homewise@fairfaxcounty.gov.

Learn Ways to Be "HomeWise"

Home is where the heart is. It’s also where the energy bills are. Making smart choices about energy use and water use can increase your comfort at home and reduce your out-of-pocket costs, while also benefiting our neighbors and the broader community by reducing energy use and lowering greenhouse gas emissions.


Engage with HomeWise

The HomeWise program is available to speak or present to your professional organizations, civic/service groups, homeowners and condo owners’ associations, and faith-based organizations. The program can also provide information tables at community events. Submit a request for the HomeWise program through the Office of Environmental and Energy Coordination’s “Request a Speaker” page.

On February 22, 2022, Fairfax County HomeWise volunteers hosted a 60-minute webinar on preventing heat loss and sealing air leaks at home. This webinar included a presentation and a question and answer session. 

On March 16, 2022 HomeWise volunteers offered a 60-minute webinar on water conservation in bathrooms. Attendees learned how to identify leaks in their bathrooms and where, when, and how to intervene. They picked up new tips and tricks for saving water used in sinks, toilets, tubs, and showers and learned how to turn their bathrooms into water-saving sanctuaries.

April showers bring May flowers, but what if it doesn't rain much? How can you use water in gardens and around the outside of your home in a responsible way? How can you cut costs due to outdoor water use as the summer approaches? The Fairfax County HomeWise program held a webinar on outdoor water conservation on April 19, 2022 to answer these questions and more.
