The Great Acton Energy Challenge - You Responded!

Join the more than 500 Acton households that have signed up for a free thermal image analysis of the exterior of their house - to help find and fix energy leaks.

You did it!

More than 500 Acton Households have signed up for free thermal imaging of the exterior of their house, a free analysis of those images showing energy leaks, and access to a variety of contractors to help fix any problems uncovered. This program was announced on .  Because of the rapid turnout, Sagewell Inc. and the Town of Acton have agreed to move on to Phase II:

  • Because we reached our first milestone on time, the Sagewell trucks are now rolling each night that is below 45 degrees and not rainy, taking images of every Acton house they can image from a public street.
  • The deadline has been extended: Acton households now have at least until March 31 to sign up. If you haven't already signed up, we encourage you to go to sagewll.com/acton to register for access to your password protected energy analysis report as soon as it is ready.
  • Sign up by March 31 to be included in this first wave of analysis reports.
  • Sagewell is now imaging municipal buildings as well and analysing those results to see what can be done to reduce the municipal energy bill.
