Heating, cooling and beyond
Federal tax credits have been re-instated effective immediately, retroactive starting January, 2018 (if homeowners wanted to go back and amend their taxes) and going through the end of this year. The announcement made late last month by the IRS re-instates federal tax credits on the installation of qualifying HVAC equipment which includes the following: 95% gas furnaces ($150); high efficient fans ($50); 16 SEER / 13 EER air conditioners ($300); and 15 SEER / 8.5 HSPF heat pumps ($300). The credit - known as IRS Code Section 25C - is subject to a cap of $500 that may have been used on any other qualifying home improvement (windows, insulation).
