Advertising and affiliate disclosure
Short version: nobody pays us to say anything, and if that ever changes you will see it clearly labeled.

Current status
As of the date above, Home Energy Guide Hub has:
- no display advertising,
- no sponsored content,
- no affiliate or referral links, and
- no paid relationships with manufacturers, contractors, utilities, lenders or retailers.
If that changes
We may add carefully chosen affiliate links or partner tools in the future to support the site. If we do:
- every paid link will be labeled next to the link, in line with the Federal Trade Commission’s Endorsement Guides;
- paid links will use the “sponsored” link attribute;
- this page will list each relationship and the date it began;
- commissions will never change our guides’ conclusions, and the editorial team will not consider commission rates when writing.
Our editorial independence
Our editorial policy explains how we keep money away from content. If you ever see something that looks like an undisclosed paid placement, please tell us.
