Airbnb is offering eligible Massachusetts Hosts grants to help improve their homes and lower their bills with energy efficiency upgrades.

Airbnb is also helping Hosts access existing Mass Save® rebates for weatherization and heat pumps

A Home Energy Efficiency Program for
Massachusetts Airbnb Hosts

Did you know that older insulation could be letting up to 20 percent of your heating and air conditioning—and the money you spend on it—go right out the window. On top of that, antiquated heating systems can cost you hundreds every winter when compared to new, efficient heat pumps.

But making energy efficiency upgrades to your home or changing your heating and cooling system can be a daunting, hard-to-navigate process. That’s why Airbnb is partnering with Massachusetts-based Abode Energy Management (Abode), which manages a network of participating Mass Save Home Performance Contractors (HPCs), to help streamline the process of accessing generous rebates that you may be eligible for and making changes that can lower your energy bills, modernize your listing and improve your guests’ comfort in every season.

In addition to the Mass Save rebates, Airbnb is offering sustainability grants to further lower costs for Massachusetts Hosts—up to $500 for Hosts who complete weatherization upgrades and up to $2,000 for Hosts who complete heat pump installations. Finally, Airbnb is also bringing Abode’s concierge services to eligible Hosts—like free heat pump consultations—delivering more peace of mind for Hosts as they pursue a more efficient home.

Get started right now!

To register your interest and confirm your eligibility for this program, please complete a brief survey by May 31. Once you’re finished, eligible Hosts will be directed to a recommended Home Performance Contractor’s website to schedule their Home Energy Assessment. Abode will be available to answer any questions you may have throughout the assessment and installation process. If you are not eligible for the Mass Save program, we’ll direct you to other resources that can help you get started on your journey to these home energy upgrades.
