Unitil is encouraging homeowners and customers who rent to take advantage of two new Mass Save energy efficiency programs.
“Unitil customers who rent can now access energy efficiency incentives through Mass Save’s Renter-Specific Offer program, and homeowners with moderate income may qualify for enhanced incentives through Mass Save’s Moderate-Income Offer,” said Alec O’Meara, media relations manager for Unitil.
The renter program includes a visit from an energy expert, who will conduct an audit and install instant savings measures such as light bulbs, power strips, gas/water saving aerators and showerheads, and collect energy efficiency information to share with the landlord.
Enhanced energy efficiency incentives are available to moderate-income households, earning 61 to 80 percent of median income. Those who opt for weatherization improvements may qualify for an increased
incentive when income is a barrier to proceeding with identified weatherization opportunities.
In addition, both renters and income-qualified homeowners who choose to replace their clothes washer are entitled to an enhanced $400 rebate. Refrigerator replacements may also be eligible for a $200 rebate with qualifying appliances.
According to O’Meara, anyone who is interested in learning more about these program can visit masssave.com or unitil.com. Unitil is a sponsor of Mass Save.
