NJ Homeowners Could Qualify for New Energy Efficiency Incentives

Efficiency incentives in New Jersey are layered. Some are income-qualified, some depend on the equipment installed, and others are tied to a verified whole-home improvement plan.

Start with an assessment

A professional home energy assessment documents where the house loses energy and, critically, produces the paperwork that most program incentives require.

  • Blower door testing to quantify air leakage
  • Infrared imaging of walls and ceilings
  • Combustion safety testing on heating equipment
  • A prioritized list of recommended measures

Then sequence the work

  1. Air sealing and insulation.
  2. Heating and cooling equipment sized to the improved envelope.
  3. Water heating and controls.
  4. Generation, such as solar, once loads are reduced.

"Right-size the house before you right-size the equipment."
