What Is a Mass Save® Home Energy Assessment?
A Mass Save® No-Cost Home Energy Assessment conducted by Revise, Inc. is a comprehensive, no-cost evaluation that identifies exactly where your home is losing energy and money. Available to all Massachusetts homeowners, renters, and landlords, this program is sponsored by Massachusetts utility companies with no hidden fees or obligations.
During your assessment, a certified home energy contractor conducts a thorough evaluation of your home’s energy use and provides a customized action plan to reduce energy expenses and improve comfort. The average value of improvements from a Mass Save® assessment exceeds $4,000, with 95% of participants recommending the service to friends and family.
What’s Included in Your No-Cost Assessment
Professional Energy Evaluation
A Revise, Inc. Home Energy Manager will spend 2-3 hours conducting a comprehensive evaluation of your home. This includes room-by-room analysis, advanced diagnostic testing with blower door equipment to measure air leakage, combustion safety testing for heating equipment, and assessment of insulation levels, heating and cooling systems, and water heating efficiency.
Your Customized Home Energy Report
After the evaluation, you’ll receive a detailed report identifying your home’s biggest energy-saving opportunities, prioritized recommendations based on potential savings, all available rebates and incentives you qualify for, and projected cost savings for each improvement. This strategic roadmap is designed specifically for your home’s unique characteristics.
Major Rebates and Incentives Available
Insulation and Air Sealing Benefits
Based on your Home Energy Assessment, you can receive 75-100% off approved insulation improvements up to $2,000 (income-eligible participants receive 100% coverage). Air sealing work is provided at no cost to all participants.
Weatherization—combining proper insulation and air sealing—typically represents the biggest energy-saving opportunity for Massachusetts homes. These improvements maintain consistent indoor temperatures without overworking your heating and cooling systems, resulting in up to 15% savings on annual heating and cooling usage. Additional benefits include improved year-round comfort, reduced drafts and cold spots, prevention of ice dams on roofs, and better humidity control throughout your home.
High-Efficiency Equipment Rebates
Mass Save® offers generous rebates on qualifying energy-efficient heating systems, cooling equipment, and water heaters. These incentives offset the higher upfront cost of premium equipment that will save you money for years to come.
0% Financing
Qualifying homeowners can apply for a 0% interest HEAT Loan through Mass Save®, allowing you to spread the cost of eligible improvements over time without paying any interest. Your Revise, Inc. Home Energy Manager will help you understand financing options and assist with applications.

Why Massachusetts Homes Need Energy Assessments
Massachusetts presents unique challenges for homeowners. Many older homes were built before modern energy efficiency standards, often featuring inadequate insulation and significant air infiltration. Combined with harsh New England winters and rising energy prices, these issues drive up heating usage substantially.
Common problems include drafty rooms, ice dams, cold floors, and uneven temperatures between rooms. These aren’t just expensive—they reduce comfort and can lead to moisture issues and structural damage. A Mass Save® No-Cost Home Energy Assessment conducted by Revise, Inc. identifies these specific issues and provides targeted solutions backed by concrete data and professional recommendations.
Long-Term Benefits Beyond Immediate Savings
Homeowners who implement recommended improvements typically see 15-20% reductions in annual energy usage—savings that compound year after year. As energy prices rise, these efficiency improvements provide protection against future rate increases.
Energy-efficient homes also command higher resale values, as buyers increasingly prioritize efficiency. Well-insulated, properly sealed homes require less maintenance and are better protected against moisture intrusion and equipment strain.
Comfort improvements are equally significant. Proper insulation and air sealing eliminate drafts and cold spots, maintaining consistent temperatures throughout your home. You’ll experience better air quality, reduced outside noise, and better moisture control that reduces mold and mildew risks.
