Home Energy Solutions (HES) work crews have a slow period in
summer, but you can take advantage of that by calling the Jonah Center’s
partner, New England Conservation Services at 1-877-389-7077. Mention the
“Jonah Center Promotion” and schedule a home visit.
Home Energy Solutions is a state-sponsored program funded by
utility rate-payers like you. Yes, you have already paid into the fund that
will pay for these services. Why not take advantage of them. Even if you have had HES at least 3 years
ago, you may be eligible to benefit from it a second time. John and Susan Hall have actually had 3 HES
visits at their home, spread over 8 years.
For every sign-up that results in a completed visit, NECS
will donate $50 to the Jonah Center. Not only that, but for visits made before August
31, the customer co-pay will be reduced to $124.

During a Home Energy Solutions assessment, a team of
courteous technicians perform a number of tests to locate energy inefficiencies
in your home, including pinpointing drafts and air leaks. Once identified, the
technicians perform weatherization services that include caulking and installing
insulation and weather strips. The technicians will also swap out traditional
incandescent light bulbs with high-efficiency replacements, and install
low-flow water devices on showers and faucets to help reduce your hot water
bill. The value of these improvements to your home is estimated to be $1200, on
average.
