SMCC to give free weatherization classes

The Associated Press

SOUTH PORTLAND — Southern Maine Community College is offering free weatherization classes to help homeowners cut their energy bills.

The two-hour classes will teach participants how heat escapes from homes and what cost-effective steps can be taken to increase energy efficiency.

College President Ron Cantor says the workshops will give people an opportunity to stay warm at a time when oil prices are going up and heating assistance and temperatures are going down.

The classes are being offered on Tuesday and again on Saturday.
