Yeongyang-gun in North Gyeongsang Province announced Wednesday that it will carry out a window insulation project to improve residential conditions and ease heating costs for vulnerable residents ahead of winter.

The county plans to install windproof vinyl and insulating bubble wrap on windows for recipients of basic livelihood benefits, single-parent families, elderly people living alone and disability pension recipients through Jan. 31, 2027, blocking drafts and improving indoor heat retention.

The project is a seasonal, community-focused initiative under the Immediate Lifestyle Complaint Response Unit, which has been in operation since 2019. It is expected to help vulnerable households improve heating efficiency and reduce energy costs.

"We will do our utmost to ensure that vulnerable households living in poor residential conditions can spend a warmer and more comfortable winter through this project," Yeongyang-gun County Mayor Oh Do-chang said.
