Energy Efficient Home Improvement Tax Credits
The Energy Efficient Home Tax Credit 25(C) was designed to assist you in upgrading your Heating & Cooling System efficiency. A homes Heating & Cooling System uses more energy than any other device/system in your home. For the average homeowner, 43-45% of your energy costs are related directly to your Heating & Cooling System.
When installing a new energy efficient Heating & Cooling System, you can cut your utility bills substantially & reduce your energy consumption overall. The tax credits are accessible provided that the products you install are certified by ENERGY STAR® & meet or exceed specific energy efficiency & performance standards.
Heat Pump Tax Credit
You may be eligible for a tax deduction of up to $2,000 by installing a certified air source heat pump. In general, heat pumps are more efficient heating & cooling systems than the traditional AC/furnace combination. They can be up to 3x more efficient than a gas furnace for heating your home in a temperate region.
Utility rates often vary between summer & winter, meaning the electricity you save in the summer often costs more while natural gas prices are higher in the winter.
Modern electric heat pumps are appropriate for houses in all types of weather conditions.
Air Conditioner Tax Credit
If you want to stay with a traditional central air conditioning system, you can earn up to a $600 tax credit for replacing your air conditioning, when installing a qualified air conditioning unit. Split systems that have an ENERGY STAR certification with a SEER2 rating of 17 or higher qualify.
Furnace Tax Credit
ENERGY STAR - certified gas furnaces with an AFUE equal to or greater than 97% are eligible for $600 stand alone tax credit. If a complete Heating & Cooling System is installed with all qualifing equipment, a larger tax credit can be uptained. Example # 1 - Installing a 97% gas furnace paired with 17 SEER2 or higher outdoor air conditioner, you can earn up to $1,200 tax credit. Example # 2 - Installing a 97% gas furance paired with 16 SEER2 or higher outdoor heat pump (Dual Fuel), you can earn up to a $2,600 tax credit.
