You’ll also get access to various rebates and incentives like zero percent financing, up to $2,750 in HVAC rebates, free air sealing, 75 percent off insulation, no-cost items like programmable thermostats, and more.
Some common questions that homeowners ask during an energy audit include how to address air leaks in the home, concerns about insulation, efficiency issues regarding heating and cooling equipment, and how they can save energy and water with additional no-cost items.

This report identifies possible energy-saving opportunities and helps you access available Mass Save rebates, incentives, and zero percent HEAT Loan financing to help you improve your home’s energy efficiency.
