Energy-Efficient Upgrades that Pay Off

Make Smart Upgrades That Increase Cash Flow and Asset Value

Owning rental properties is a long-term investment, so why let energy inefficiencies chip away at your returns? At Paradigm Energy Services, we offer turnkey energy efficiency upgrades that reduce utility expenses, attract quality tenants, and increase the long-term value of your assets. Whether you manage a few units or a growing portfolio, we help you unlock new savings with minimal effort.

Paradigm helps landlords and real estate investors upgrade their rental units with energy-efficient systems that pay off over time.

These improvements lower operating expenses, reduce maintenance calls, and make your properties more attractive to tenants. They also increase long-term property value.

Smart Thermostats

Cut energy waste with programmable and remotely accessible thermostats. These devices help tenants manage usage and reduce heating and cooling costs while giving you insight into building performance.

Air Source Heat Pumps

Reduce reliance on fossil fuels and outdated systems with electric heat pumps that provide year-round comfort. These systems are highly efficient and eligible for generous incentives, especially in rental properties.

Ductless Mini-Splits

Perfect for unit-specific temperature control in buildings without ductwork. These systems are efficient, quiet, and easy to install between turnovers or renovations.

High-Efficiency Heating and Cooling Systems

Upgrade to modern boilers or furnaces that reduce fuel consumption and maintenance costs. Consistent, reliable heating and cooling leads to fewer tenant complaints and lower utility bills.

Insulation & Air Sealing

Stop heat loss and drafts at the source. We install insulation in attics, walls, pipes, and crawl spaces, and seal leaks around doors, windows, and fixtures. These upgrades significantly improve comfort and reduce HVAC strain.

Energy-Efficient Windows

Modern windows boost insulation, reduce energy bills, and improve curb appeal. A smart way to enhance both tenant satisfaction and resale value.

LED Lighting Upgrades

Retrofit interior and exterior lighting with long-lasting, energy-saving LED solutions. Great for reducing electricity costs and enhancing safety in hallways, parking areas, and stairwells.

ENERGY STAR® Appliances

Efficient refrigerators, washers, and dryers reduce electric and water usage while offering the features renters expect. These upgrades are often covered or subsidized through incentives.

Variable Frequency Drive (VFD)

Optimize motor energy use by adjusting speed and torque to match demand, reducing energy consumption and extending equipment lifespan.

Preservation of Affordable Housing (POAH)

Great experience from start to finish! Paradigm was able to schedule a home energy assessment within a few weeks of our initial call and they got all of our new air sealing and installation installed ASAP. The home energy inspector was friendly, professional, and thorough, and he was able to explain all of his findings to us clearly. The installation crew was quick and professional, adding insulation and air sealing to our basement. We didn't feel any pressure at any point and the Paradigm team was always quick to respond and helpful. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a MassSave contractor!

These folks came promptly for a no-cost energy assessment and did a thorough job. The technician was knowledgeable and could easily talk through options, and wasn’t pushy. There’s a lot of rebate money available if you jump through the right hoops, and they knew exactly how to guide me through that. Great experience from some local folks that felt on my side.
