LIHEAP

Are you having problems paying your Service Oil heating oil or propane bills this winter? Help is here!

We understand that times can be tough, and thanks to the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance program (LIHEAP), Pennsylvania families can receive cash grants to help pay their heating bills. 

What is LIHEAP?

  • LIHEAP is financial assistance that can help you keep your home warm and safe during the coldest winter months.
  • From now until April 10, 2026, you can apply for a cash grant to help pay your heating bill.
  • You can receive from $200 to $1,000 based on your household size, income, and fuel type.
  • The LIHEAP cash grant is a one-time payment, and will be sent directly to SOC Energy/Service Oil Co. to be credited on your bill. 
  • You may be eligible to receive additional funds for a household heating emergency through a crisis grant.

Am I Eligible for LIHEAP?

  • To qualify for LIHEAP in Pennsylvania, you must meet income requirements, which are set based on your household size. Please see this link for eligibility relating to household size and income.
  • Renters and homeowners are both eligible for benefits.
  • You do not need to be on another public assistance program or have unpaid heating bills to qualify. 

How Do I Apply for LIHEAP?

You can apply for LIHEAP online, by mail, or in-person at your local county assistance office.
