That sentence, in plain words

The housing agency must set up a test program. It gives money to landlords and housing agencies. They use it to buy and put in heat sensors and see if they work.

What this is about

Assisted rental homes must be kept at safe temperatures. A sensor measures the air and reports it. The test is meant to show whether that helps.
