Financing at 0%
0% HEAT Loan Financing in Winthrop, MA
Put in a heat pump now and pay it down without interest, with the contractor paperwork handled by our crew and the lender steps explained.
What the HEAT Loan Does and Where the Crew Fits In
Plenty of Winthrop owners already want off oil; what holds them back is writing one big check, and that is the gap the Mass Save HEAT Loan was built to close. Eligible owners can borrow up to $25,000 at 0% interest for qualifying work, heat pumps included, along with the insulation and air sealing that frequently has to happen beforehand. Lenders who signed up with the program, a mix of banks and credit unions, write those loans, and approval and terms sit entirely with them. Where our crew earns its keep is the contractor half of the file, since that is where applications tend to stall out. Here is how it flows. Your electric or gas service has to come through a Mass Save utility. We hand you a written scope of the job and equipment. The program's authorization form gets completed. Your lender looks everything over and makes a decision. After the crew wraps up, an inspector checks that what got installed lines up with what was proposed. Whole-house heat pump projects also need the Mass Save energy assessment first, which is provided at no cost. Our job is a scope that reads cleanly, our portion of that authorization form done right, equipment that suits the program and an install timed so inspection day is uneventful. Monthly figures and repayment length come from the lender alone, so you won't hear them from us. You will, however, know exactly what each stage involves before you reach it.
