News: Mass Save (Updated 2025)
As of February 19, 2025, the Mass SaveĀ® HEAT Loan Program offers Massachusetts homeowners 0% interest financing for energy-efficient home upgrades. The program provides up to $25,000 for eligible improvements, including weatherization, pre-weatherization barrier removal, ENERGY STARĀ® certified replacement windows, and residential batteries enrolled in ConnectedSolutions. An additional $25,000 is available specifically for heat pump projects and heat pump water heaters, bringing the total possible loan amount to $50,000.
Mass Save Overview:
Mass Save is a collaborative initiative by Massachusetts’ electric and natural gas utilities and energy efficiency service providers. The program aims to help residents reduce energy consumption and costs through incentivized upgrades and repairs, thereby contributing to the state’s carbon emission reduction goals.
Expanded Opportunities with Increased Heat Loan Limits:
The increased heat loan limit empowers homeowners to invest in advanced heating and cooling technologies, such as ductless mini-split systems and heat pumps. These systems offer superior comfort and significant energy savings. By utilizing the Mass Save HEAT Loan Program, homeowners can upgrade their HVAC systems without the burden of high upfront costs, making energy efficiency more accessible.
Environmental Benefits:
Upgrading to energy-efficient heating and cooling systems through the Mass Save HEAT Loan Program contributes to:
- Reduction in Greenhouse Gas Emissions: Efficient systems consume less energy, leading to lower carbon footprints.
- Promotion of Renewable Energy Integration: Technologies like heat pumps can be powered by renewable sources, supporting a sustainable energy infrastructure.
- Enhanced Energy Efficiency: Improved systems reduce overall energy consumption, conserving natural resources.
- Waste Reduction: Replacing older systems decreases maintenance needs and reduces landfill waste.



Cleaner Energy = Cleaner Environment
East Coast Mini Splits is proud to partner with Mass Save in promoting energy efficiency and sustainability. Our mission aligns perfectly with the goals of the Mass Save program, as we strive to offer options within heating and cooling solutions that reduce environmental impact and save homeowners money. Through this partnership, we aim to empower homeowners across Massachusetts to embrace energy-efficient technologies and make a positive difference for both their wallets and a more clean planet.
Reduction in Greenhouse Gas Emissions:
The Mass Save Heat Loan program encourages the adoption of energy-efficient heating and cooling systems like ductless mini-splits and heat pumps. These technologies use less energy compared to traditional HVAC systems, leading to a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. By decreasing the reliance on fossil fuels, homeowners can lower their carbon footprint and contribute to cleaner air.
Promotion of Renewable Energy Integration:
Many of the heating and cooling systems supported by the Mass Save Heat Loan program, such as heat pumps, can be powered by renewable energy sources like solar and wind. By facilitating the switch to these systems, the program indirectly supports the integration and use of renewable energy, which has a much lower environmental impact compared to conventional energy sources. This shift helps to foster a sustainable energy infrastructure.
Enhanced Energy Efficiency:
Upgrading to high-efficiency HVAC systems means that homes require less energy to maintain comfortable temperatures. The improved efficiency translates to less energy consumption overall, reducing the demand on power plants and lowering the environmental impact associated with energy production. This, in turn, conserves natural resources and reduces the negative effects of energy generation on the environment.
Waste Reduction:
By incentivizing the replacement of older, less efficient HVAC systems, the Mass Save Heat Loan program helps to reduce waste. Older systems that are replaced often require more frequent repairs and maintenance and eventually contribute to landfill waste when they fail completely. Newer, energy-efficient systems are designed for longevity and reduced maintenance needs, which means fewer resources are expended over time and less waste is generated.
Ready to Upgrade?
Now that the Mass Save Loan is up to $50,000, there is no better time to upgrade. Not only will you help your wallet, you’ll notice more comfort and better temperature fluctuations room-to-room. Plus, a cost-effective solution helping the planet is always a nice advantage.
