Unsolicited Calls

Have you received an unsolicited call for a free home energy audit?



The ACT Government and the Home Energy Advice Team (HEAT) which is contracted by the ACT Government to provide home energy audits, does not make unsolicited telephone calls or door knocks to offer appointments for free home energy audits. 

HEAT only telephones a resident about the ACT Energy Wise audit after the resident has contacted HEAT requesting the service.

 

In telephone contact or face to face contact, Home Energy Advice Team (HEAT) staff/auditors will always identify themselves as the Home Energy Advice Team offering the ACT Government’s ACT Energy Wise audit. They will always have photo identification.

Unsolicited calls or door knocks offering free home energy audits may be associated with organisations involved with the Australian Government’s Home Sustainability Assessment and Green Loans program.

If you wish to make a complaint or inquiry about the program, contact the Australian Government Green Loans Information Line on 1800 895 076.

If you wish to make a complaint about the organisation offering the audit service or seek advice about your consumer rights, contact ACT Fair Trading (of the Office of Regulatory Services) on 6207 0400.
