How It Works

How Financing Works With Zero Homes

That big upgrade number can stop a project before it starts. Financing turns it into something far easier to plan around: a fixed monthly payment instead of one large bill up front.

Here's the part most homeowners don't expect. You don't have to go hunting for a lender or decode loan paperwork on your own. Zero Homes finds the right program for your project, handles the application, and files everything for you. You review the numbers and sign. We take care of the rest.

Your Options

Two Ways to Finance

Every home and every budget is a little different, so we work with two financing paths through the Colorado Clean Energy Fund. We'll help you find the one that fits.

Colorado RENU Loan

For any Colorado homeowner, statewide.

  • Up to $75,000, with terms up to 20 years
  • No money down to get started
  • A below-market fixed rate that won't change
  • No penalty for paying it off early
  • Backed by the equipment we install, not a lien on your home
  • Approved in several business days
  • Offered through Colorado not-for-profit credit unions

ClearPath On-Bill Repayment

For Xcel Energy customers.

  • Repaid right on your monthly Xcel Energy bill
  • Finance from $1,500 up to $50,000
  • No separate credit hurdle, since it's tied to your utility account
  • A simple way to fold your upgrade into a bill you already pay
  • Built for Xcel Energy service territory across Colorado
What You Can Finance

What You Can Finance

Financing covers the upgrades that make your home healthier, quieter, and more efficient. Bundle several into one project, or start with the one that matters most.
  • Heat Pumps & AC
    Year-round heating and cooling from a single efficient system.
  • Heat Pump Water Heating
    Hot water that uses a fraction of the energy of a conventional tank.
  • Insulation & Air Sealing
    Seal the leaks and hold your comfortable air where it belongs.
  • Windows & Doors
    Cut drafts and outside noise while you lift your home's efficiency.

Rebates + Financing

Stack Financing With Rebates

Financing and rebates aren't an either-or. They work better together.

Zero Homes applies every rebate and incentive your project qualifies for first, which brings the total down before financing ever enters the picture. Then we finance what's left. You get the lowest possible starting number and a monthly payment to match.

How it Works

Four Steps from First Call to Install.

From the first call to a system on your wall, here is the whole arc.

  1. Talk to a Home Advisor

    A quick call to confirm the details, answer your questions, and kick off your scan.

    10 to 15 min

  2. Scan Your Home

    Walk through your house with the app; it captures the rooms, equipment, and electrical panel that drive your design.

    ~15 min

  3. Get Your Quote

    Our engineering team designs your system and sends a real, line-itemed quote with every rebate applied.

    A few business days

  4. Schedule Your Install

    Confirm your quote, pick a date, and a vetted local crew handles the install and commissioning.

    1 to 2 weeks

What's on Your Plate

Here's Who Does What.

We handle the design, paperwork, and crew. Your part is short and clear.

What You Handle
