Our team stays up to date and can help you understand which programs are currently available and what may apply to your home.
Oil to Heat Pump Affordability Program (OHPA)
The Oil to Heat Pump Affordability Program has been a popular option for homeowners looking to switch from oil heating to electric heat pumps.
This program is currently paused, but may reopen when funding becomes available.
If and when programs like this are active, we can help guide you through the process.
Do I Need to Pay Everything
Up Front?
This is one of the most common questions we hear.
In many cases, no.
Depending on the program, some homeowners may have access to options that reduce upfront costs or provide reimbursement after installation.
Important to know:

Many homeowners are surprised to learn they qualify.
