What to Gather

Have a recent utility bill ready before you start

The form takes a few minutes. You'll answer quick questions about your home type, ownership, and primary heating fuel, then identify your electric and gas providers — and you'll need your utility account number, which is on any recent bill.

  • Home type: single-family, apartment, or condominium; and whether you own or rent
  • Heating fuel: natural gas, fuel oil, propane, or electric
  • Providers: Eversource or United Illuminating for electric; Eversource, CNG, or SCG for gas — plus your account number

We review your submission and contact you to schedule your visit

Eligibility confirmation comes first. Our team reviews your application and confirms whether your household qualifies for HES-IE — open to income-eligible Eversource and UI customers, and to households receiving SNAP, TANF, SSI, or WIC benefits.

  • Once eligibility is confirmed, we reach out to schedule your in-home assessment
  • The audit is a 2–4 hour visit that includes same-day weatherization improvements
  • There is no cost to qualifying households

Written by my mother who recently had work done on her house: "I highly recommend HCP! The crew were knowledgeable, and professional from audit to completion of project. They answer any & all questions or concerns. They cleaned all areas worked on leaving my home pristine daily. Customer Service is OUTSTANDING, especially Lucy B. who was so informative & friendly. So impressed with this company, they not only did my insulation but replace my windows as well! Thank you so much Mr. Wyatt for helping me make my home energy - efficient!!!"
