Start your own HEET

Beginning your own HEET allows you to:
- Meet lots of people in your community.
- Cut some carbon.
- Learn about how to reduce energy bills and carbon emissions.
- Help out the residents of the buildings where the work-party takes place.
If you’re within a one-hour drive of Boston, we’ll help you do a thorough check-up of the building, including a blower door test. We’ll help you write up the possible work items, spec the materials, find team leaders and organize the event. Contact us.
