Home Energy Improvement Program

COVID-19 Update:

As part of our commitment to safety, we are taking appropriate precautions to protect the health and safety of our customer-members, contractors, and employees. Scheduled in-home energy assessments under the Home Energy Improvement Program are on hold until February 1, 2021. If you have an in-home assessment scheduled between now and February 1, SMECO will be contacting you to reschedule. We apologize for any inconvenience. Please check back on February 1, 2021, for updates.

Home Energy Analysis:

A no-cost home energy analysis is a great way for you to get started on finding ways to save on your energy costs. When you schedule an appointment, a SMECO Energy Advisor will visit your home to:

• Analyze your home’s energy use.
• Install energy-saving items—LEDs, faucet aerators, efficient-flow showerheads, smart power strips, and pipe insulation (electric and gas water heaters only).
• Provide upgrade recommendations that will further increase your savings and comfort.

Use your eligible instant rebates—up to $7,500—when your contractor installs the upgrades you choose. Learn more about the recent addition of upgrades to Heat Pump Water Heaters.

During HEIP appointments, SMECO Energy Advisors are helping to ensure the safety of our members by taking precautions, like social distancing, wearing masks, and sanitizing equipment. Ask about safety protocols when scheduling your appointment.

• Schedule your home energy analysis

When you schedule your home energy analysis, let us know if you are interested in switching to a smart thermostat—you can get a $100 instant rebate* for qualifying models and no-cost installation (limit 3 per household)!** You can also request a no-cost HVAC system tune-up.

• Indoor and outdoor coil cleaning
• Expansion valve inspection
• Electrical inspection
