What is Mass Save?
Mass Save is Massachusetts' statewide energy efficiency program, funded by the state's gas and electric utilities. It offers rebates and incentives to help homeowners replace older, inefficient equipment with modern, energy-saving systems.
Eligible upgrades include high-efficiency water heaters, boilers, and heating systems. After qualifying equipment is installed, Massachusetts residents can apply for rebates directly through their utility provider.

Mass Save questions we answer all the time
Do Mass Save rebate amounts change?
Yes. Mass Save updates equipment eligibility and rebate amounts by program year. We use this page as a working snapshot, but you should always verify the live numbers at masssave.com before you buy equipment.
Does Johnson Bros. apply for the Mass Save rebate for me?
No. We install the qualifying equipment and provide the equipment details and invoice documentation you need. The homeowner submits the rebate application directly through Mass Save or the utility administrator.
What can Johnson Bros. confirm before I commit to a replacement?
We can confirm whether the equipment we are proposing is typically eligible, what installation work is required, what permits apply, and what documentation you will receive after the job. We do not promise a rebate until the live Mass Save criteria and your utility account are verified.
Do standard gas water heaters qualify for Mass Save rebates?
As of this April 2026 snapshot, standard gas tank and gas tankless water heaters are not listed as Mass Save rebate products. Verify the current water-heating page at masssave.com before purchasing because program rules can change.
Is this page a quote for my rebate?
No. This page is a guide to how the program usually works. Your actual rebate depends on the live Mass Save rules, the equipment installed, and your utility eligibility at the time you apply.
