To help people save energy and money, Columbia Water and Light is
offering the Air Conditioner Exchange program again this year for
low-income customers.  The purpose of this program is to replace
inefficient window units with new energy efficient window units.  The
Central Missouri Community Action is partnering with the utility and
will be screening the applicants and helping to distribute the units.

Below are the eligibility requirements for the Air Conditioner Exchange
program:  

You must be a current City of Columbia utility customer 
You must have an older less efficient/broken window unit to exchange 
You have an annual income of less than 150% of the poverty level 
We are making these groups of people our first priority for the
exchange program: 
65 years of age or older 
Receive income for a disability 
Have children age 5 or younger living in your household 
Please note that there are a limited number of units to exchange.  If a
person is unable to bring in the older unit to exchange for a new unit,
they should contact the CMCA-Boone County Family Resource Center at
573-443-8731.
