About HeatSmart Newton

HeatSmart Newton is a community-based, volunteer-led, clean heating and cooling initiative to help residents improve home comfort, lower their energy bills, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. HeatSmart is a grassroots program managed by the city and driven by a group of volunteer Newton residents. HeatSmart Newton is part of the HeatSmart Mass Program supported by the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center and the Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources.

Heating, cooling, and hot water from residential building accounts for nearly 80% of Newton’s greenhouse gas emissions. HeatSmart Newton promotes the adoption of efficient electric air source heat pump technology to help reduce these emissions.

HeatSmart Newton offers:

• Access to vetted, highly qualified installers
• Transparent and competitive pricing
• Information on accessing state and local rebates and 0% financing
• In-depth information on air source heat pump technology for heating, cooling, and hot water
• Information on special programs for low income residents

HeatSmart Newton will be a win-win-win for everyone involved:

• Residents will get access to competitively priced energy-saving air source heat pump technology that enhances comfort year-round, lowers greenhouse gas emissions, and can lower energy costs.
• The City of Newton will reduce its community greenhouse gas emissions, helping it move toward its Climate Action Plan goals.
• Electrifying your home utilities gives you the opportunity to use on-site or regionally-derived 100% green electricity instead of burning fossil fuels.
