Why we are doing this
Massive clean heating incentives have arrived, but high quote variance leaves families guessing if they are receiving fair market pricing.
Tightening household budgets
Rising costs for groceries, insurance, and housing leave less room for major home upgrades. Every dollar counts when planning energy transitions.
Higher utility bills
Massachusetts homeowners face some of the highest electricity and heating costs in the country. Clear information is essential before switching fuels.
Rising equipment and installation costs
Heat pumps and related equipment have become more expensive, and quotes for similar homes can vary widely. Homeowners deserve transparent benchmarks.
Impact on homeowners and the green economy
When pricing is unclear, homeowners delay upgrades, and that slows the shift to cleaner, more efficient homes across the state. Clear data builds confidence.
How it works
Contributing is quick, confidential, and directly empowers fellow residents across all 351 Commonwealth municipalities.

Add a PDF or photo of each quote, or type the key numbers in. You can add more than one quote at once, and it works on any phone or computer.
Tell us a little about your home
Square footage, number of outdoor and indoor units, and general region in Massachusetts so we can categorize your heating load accurately.
Get the live results
Once enough quotes are in, we email you a private link to live results comparing prices across Massachusetts by system type, size and region, updated as new quotes arrive. You are also entered to win a $10 Home Depot gift card.
What we ask for
We only collect equipment specs and pricing fundamentals required for statistical normalization.
Please black out your name, address, and phone number before uploading. Quote files are kept in the study’s private storage, checked by the research team only, and deleted when the study ends. Installer names are kept confidential and are never published or included in any report.
Installers are welcome to contribute too
Contractors don’t upload quotes. Instead, you choose an equipment brand and fill in your typical installed prices for common ductless mini-split and central heat pump setups, writing N/A for any you don’t install. Contractor pricing is analyzed separately from homeowner quotes, and your company name is kept confidential.
The finished Massachusetts market study, with pricing by system configuration, region and equipment brand, is available to purchase for a fee. It contains combined figures only, never individual quotes, homeowner details or installer names.
