What kind of projects do you cover?

Each program has different guidelines, but the eligible energy efficient and renewable energy improvements can include the following—and more!

The fine print

There really isn’t any! Each program will have specific efficiency requirements for each measure installed (e.g., SEER, AFUE, etc) that you’ll have to check, but we make that info easy to access and provide fast support.

After you become an EFS-approved contractor, you’ll have an annual review by EFS. We reserve the right to change contractor participation standards at any time as deemed appropriate by EFS or program directors.
