Building an inclusive, people-first culture

Dave Boettcher and Travis Estes founded Abode with a clear vision: progress in clean energy is best achieved through integrity, collaboration, and a genuine focus on what matters. Drawing on lessons from years in the industry, Abode was created to do things differently—prioritizing people, relationships, and meaningful impact.

Our team

Headquartered in Massachusetts, the Abode team is a cornerstone of the clean energy transition in the Northeast. Through our work in Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island—as well as national educational initiatives with partners like Rewiring America—Abode makes a measurable impact on customers, contractors, communities, and the regional economy.

Our points of contact at abode have a real understanding of our issues

“Abode wants to support the Home Performance Contractors, and that support is felt on a daily basis. Phone calls are answered immediately. Emails are responded to expeditiously. Our points of contact at Abode have a real understanding of our issues; the competence of Abode’s team is obvious daily. Additionally, I can say that the relationship between our two companies is one of respect, not adversarial, allowing us to talk through situations and arrive at logical solutions rationally.”

They take a well-measured approach to the best practices for efficiency upgrades

“I have worked in the Mass Save program for over four years as a crew chief and an auditor and I welcome Abode’s approach to oversight. Their QA inspectors are frequently on site to provide guidance and ensure homeowners have a great experience with the program. They take a well-measured approach to the best practices for efficiency upgrades and are always willing to come up with creative solutions to challenges presented in homes.”

It was tremendously helpful to speak with an Abode technical consultant!

“Thank you, it was tremendously helpful to speak with an Abode technical consultant! We find ourselves in “Go” mode. The Q&A was incredibly helpful to get a sense of whether we are heading in the right direction and the factors to consider. I feel that we are now ready to confidently place our order for the new system and for that informed approach we thank you very much. Cheers to Abode for helping homeowners understand and thus proceed with heat pumps and better energy efficiency!”

Stay connected with Abode

Who says you can't have a little fun with heat pumps?

The Abode team took a break from our usual work for some friendly competition, a few laughs, and a little team bonding right at the office!

Our Culture Club organized an afternoon of games, including Pin the Fan on the Condenser, Corn Hole, Can Jam, Frisbee, AND Heat Pump Piñata (Thanks, Isabela!).

As much as we enjoy the work we do together, it's just as important to make time to connect outside of our day-to-day projects. These are the moments that help build the relationships, friendships, and culture that make Abode such a great place to work.

And really, how many companies can say they have a Heat Pump Piñata?

Thanks to our Culture Club for bringing everyone together!

We’re proud to be a Lead Sponsor of Northeast Energy Efficiency Partnerships (NEEP)'s Heating Electrification Workshop 2026!

From October 20–22, the Abode team will be in Portland, Maine joining leaders from across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic to dig into what it will take to make heating electrification more accessible, affordable, and equitable.

This year’s workshop will spotlight innovative market interventions, emerging technologies, workforce development opportunities, consumer education efforts, and policy models that support equitable, affordable electrification.

We’re looking forward to learning, sharing what we’re seeing in the field, and connecting with the people working on these challenges from every angle.

Heading to Portland? We’d love to see you there.

The Abode team was in Worcester last week for the 2026 US Heat Pump Summit, connecting with contractors, industry partners, and two programs we're proud to support: @masssave  and the New England Heat Pump Accelerator.

The Summit brought the technical and business sides of the industry together, with conversations ranging from installation, commissioning, and system design to sales, customer experience, training, and growing a successful heat pump business.

For our team, it was also an important opportunity to hear directly from contractors. What are they seeing in the field? Where are the challenges? What training and resources would actually help? And how can programs like Mass Save and the Accelerator better support the people doing this work every day?

Those conversations are invaluable as we continue working with our partners to make it easier for contractors to access the training, incentives, resources, and support they need to grow their heat pump businesses.

Thanks to the U.S. Heat Pump Summit team and everyone who stopped by to talk with us. We came home with plenty of ideas and, even more importantly, a lot of great contractor conversations to keep building on.
