Pleasant Grove Insulation Rebates: How the Wilson Family Saved $1,810 (and You Can Too!)

Meet the Wilsons—How They Turned a $4,000 Insulation Upgrade into $2,190 (and Saved $1,810!)

Hey friend, have you ever walked into your kid’s room on a freezing winter night and thought, “There’s gotta be a better way”? That was exactly the Wilsons of Pleasant Grove—Emma and Jake were shivering under their blankets, the furnace was working overtime, and the whole family felt the pinch of high energy bills. Then one day, Mrs. Wilson spotted a simple flyer: “Utah Insulation Rebates—Claim Yours Today!”

Curious, they called us at Interwest Insulation, and by the end of the project they weren’t just warmer—they were $1,810 richer. Here’s how their story unfolded—and how you can get the same kind of savings.

Why Insulation Rebates Are a Big Deal in Utah

Pleasant Grove’s summers bake homes, and winters freeze them. Good insulation isn’t just nice-to-have—it’s a game changer. The Wilsons discovered their attic was stuck at R‑19, well below Utah’s recomme

 

nded R‑49 to R‑60, and their basement ceiling and newly framed basement walls had zero insulation. Chance for rebates? Absolutely.

Quick heads‑up: If your rooms feel drafty or your floors echo every step, you could qualify for major rebates (up to 65¢ per sq ft) plus a 30% federal tax credit!

Our Friendly Walk‑Through

We showed up at the Wilsons’ door with clipboards and completed an evaluation. Measurements looked like this:

• Attic: 1,000 sq ft — topping up to R‑60 with blown‑in fiberglass

• Basement ceiling: 400 sq ft — net‑and‑blow fiberglass for soundproofing

• Basement walls: 500 sq ft of framed walls — ready for fiberglass batts

We explained their three biggest money‑back opportunities:

1. Wattsmart (Rocky Mountain Power) – up to $0.65/sq ft

2. ThermWise (Dominion Energy) – up to $0.50/sq ft

3. Federal Tax Credit – 30% of material costs (up to $1,200)
