Heating Contractor Overview The Contractor Application provides the procedures for heating contractors to apply and qualify for the State’s Heating System Repair and Replacement Program (HSRRP) contractor roster. Contractors may apply for the roster at any time during the program year, so it is an open enrollment process. To qualify, contractors must have the qualifications specified in the application under the section titled “Minimum Requirements for HSRRP Contractors.” Contractors must maintain all requirements in order to remain on the roster. The State reserves the right to modify the qualifications as necessary to serve the needs of the program and its stakeholders. The program will make every effort to give advance notice of such modifications and to assist current contractors in obtaining any new qualifications. Contractors who are on the roster are eligible to perform weatherization work for RI Community Action Agencies.
