A lot goes into building a home—especially before you even break ground. Discussing a budget, choosing the ideal location, settling on a floor plan, meeting with builders, signing paperwork. The list goes on and on. In the middle of making a million and one decisions about paint colors and cabinet hardware, saving money when you finally move in may not even cross your mind.

But it should!

While you’re building, build some time into looking into how the ThermWise program can help you save. Early in the construction process is the perfect time to begin including energy-efficient measures into what will eventually become your dream home.

Ask your builder to consider working with the ThermWise program to help you save money. You may be eligible for rebates when making energy-efficient upgrades to your home, including:

  • Choosing energy-efficient appliances
  • Installing a smart thermostat or a dual-fuel heating system
  • Building a new single or multi-family ENERGY STAR®-qualified home

These upgrades all improve the efficiency of your home so you’ll save costs on your utility bills when you move in. And you could save even more by applying for a rebate through the ThermWise Builder Rebate Program.

Get the most out of your construction budget. Talk to your builder about all the ways you can implement ThermWise program savings now so you can continue to conserve and save for years to come.
