Warm homes. Strong communities. That is what Heat Healthy is all about.

Every Home Energy Assessment through Home Energy Solutions–Income Eligible ℠, every upgrade, and every neighbor who shares this program move us closer to a Connecticut that wastes less and lives better.

Energize Connecticut℠ makes it possible, and this community makes it real.

We are glad you are part of it. Learn more about Heat Healthy: https://www.livegreenct.org/heat-healthy

Did you know? Heat pumps can heat and cool your home in one system, and they run on electricity instead of fossil fuels.
That means fewer emissions, more comfort year-round, and you may qualify for savings through the Home Energy Solutions–Income Eligible ℠ program.

Heat Healthy is here to help Connecticut families make the switch!

Community care looks like a lot of things. It looks like Apex Community Care, right here in Torrington, making sure neighbors have what they need to thrive.

Heat Healthy partners with organizations like Apex Community Care to connect Torrington residents with free Home Energy Assessments and savings through Energize Connecticut℠.

Together, we are helping families stay warm and save energy this season.

Your home works harder than you think to stay warm. Gaps around windows, doors, and pipes let cold air sneak in and send your heating bill up.

A Home Energy Assessment through Home Energy Solutions–Income Eligible ℠ programs can pinpoint exactly where your home is losing heat, and you may qualify for savings on insulation upgrades.

That is what Heat Healthy is all about: warmer homes, lower bills, and healthier communities this winter.

Heat Healthy is more than a program. It is a community-wide effort to help Connecticut families live more comfortably, use less energy, and lower their utility bills.

Through the Energize Connecticut℠ Community Partnership Initiative, Live Green Connecticut works alongside towns, local businesses, and community organizations in Bridgeport, Stratford, Torrington, and Winsted to connect residents with Home Energy Solutions–Income Eligible ℠, assessments, and upgrades like insulation and heat pumps.

We show up where you are, because every household deserves a warmer, healthier home.

As temperatures drop, those small gaps and air leaks work overtime, forcing your heating system to work harder and driving up your energy bills.

The good news? A free Home Energy Solutions℠ visit through the Energize Connecticut℠ program can help identify those areas of your home and connect you with solutions that can make a real difference this winter.
