The Mass Save program is an essential tool for many Massachusetts residents. The program offers financial incentives to homeowners who invest in home efficiency upgrades, such as home weatherization and heat pump systems.
Many Jay Moody HVAC customers utilize Mass Save when converting to heat pumps or other high-efficiency systems.
Since inception of the program, Mass Save requirements and processes have evolved. While most changes occur at the beginning of the year, Mass Save can update its program requirements at any time. It’s important that homeowners take this into account when planning home improvement projects that utilize the program.

Approved Equipment & Contractors
Your heat pump installation must be completed by a contractor participating in the Mass Save Heat Pump Installer Network (HPIN). Jay Moody HVAC is a member of the HPIN!
Additionally, the heat pump equipment used must also be listed on the Mass Save Heat Pump Qualified Products List.
Approved Integrated Controls
If your home will continue to use oil, propane, or natural gas heating, integrated controls must be installed.
The integrated control system automatically switches between the heat pump and fuel system, maximizing energy savings. This switch occurs at a particular outdoor temperature, approved by Mass Save. Our installation technicians will set this for you!
The integrated control system must be on the Mass Save Integrated Control Qualified Product List to receive a rebate.
Submit Rebate Application
To receive your partial-home rebate, the rebate application and supporting documentation must be submitted within 60 days of the final system installation.
As part of the installation service, our Jay Moody HVAC team assists homeowners through the Mass Save application process.
2024 Mass Save HEAT Loan
In addition to rebate incentives, Mass Save offers the Mass Save HEAT Loan, a financing incentive for home energy improvements.
The Mass Save HEAT Loan is a zero-interest, 7-year loan of up to $50,000. This loan can be used to finance your whole-home heat pump installation as well as any necessary weatherization. Requirements for the Mass Save HEAT Loan are like those of the whole-home rebate.
A Home Energy Assessment and weatherization is necessary to qualify for the HEAT Loan. Once you have completed this step and have chosen a contractor, you can apply for the HEAT Loan. To do this, you must submit a copy of the intake form using the Mass Save HEAT Loan online portal.
If you have chosen Jay Moody HVAC for your installation, our team is happy to help you navigate the application process.
It’s important to note that the HEAT Loan does not cover any rebate amounts expected to be dispersed to you prior to your rebate application’s approval.
For instance, if your project costs $25,000 and you qualify for a $10,000 rebate, you would receive a HEAT Loan of $15,000 and would be expected to pay the remaining $10,000 of your project at the time of the installation. Jay Moody HVAC also offers no/low-interest financing through Synchrony Bank.
2024 Boiler & Furnace Rebates
In 2024, Mass Save will begin phasing out incentives for fossil fuel equipment such as natural gas, oil and propane furnaces/boilers. Qualifying fuel systems must be installed by August 31, 2024. Rebate applications must be submitted by September 30, 2024 to be eligible for Mass Save rebates.
