The letter from the Town
The partnership with Al In Energy through an MOU was anounced in a letter to all residents from John Bugbee, Acting Town Manager. The letter is reproduced below:
Dear Wayland Homeowner or Renter,
I am pleased to announce “Wayland Saves Energy”, a new partnership between the Town of Wayland and All In Energy, a Massachusetts nonprofit, to connect residents to enhanced no–cost Home Energy Assessments to help you upgrade your home’s energy performance, save money, improve your home’s comfort, and help Wayland meet its climate goals.
Homeowners can take advantage of generous new financial incentives for heat pumps and increased incentives for insulation by scheduling a no–cost Home Energy Assessment. Heat pump systems can be used to both heat and cool your entire home more efficiently than traditional systems, without relying on the use of fossil fuels, such as natural gas and oil. The Home Energy Assessments are provided by a Mass Save Home Performance Contractor at no cost to you and will identify energy saving measures in your home and relevant financial incentives.
If you’ve had a Home Energy Assessment more than two years ago you might think you don’t need another, but here are some reasons to consider one:
Up to a $15,000 rebate for heat pumps for heating and cooling; you must complete a no–cost Home Energy Assessment and the recommended weatherization upgrades to be eligible for the highest level of incentives.
- 0% financing for energy efficiency home upgrades through the Mass Save HEAT Loan program.
- Over time, new leaks and drafts may develop or insulation may settle, requiring additional air sealing or insulation. The Mass Save programs no longer have a cap on the insulation costs that can be covered, which can be up to 75% of the total, or up to 100% for renters.
- Learn if you would be a good candidate for heat pumps or solar.
- Get connected to a volunteer coach from Wayland to answer your questions about home energy upgrades, solar, or electric cars, bikes, or lawn equipment.
To schedule a no–cost Home Energy Assessment, call All In Energy at (508)456-9876 or visit www.WaylandSavesEnergy.org
The Town of Wayland and All In Energy look forward to helping you make your home more comfortable, affordable, and sustainable and move Wayland toward its Town climate goals.
