New federal tax credit incentives to increase the appeal of duct sealing for homeowners!
Consumer Reports, Money Magazine and other leading publications say that duct sealing is one of the best investments to reduce home energy bills. Sealing duct work has proven to be more effective than attic insulation and upgrading windows. Now, the federal government has acknowledged the benefit of sealing ductwork and is offering tax credit!
Home owners may be eligible for tax credit worth 10% of the cost of upgrading the efficiency of the home’s duct system, labor costs are not included. The credit is capped at a maximum of $500 for all improvements from January 1, 2011 – December 31, 2016. Click here to read more about how to get tax credit for sealing your air ducts.
Be sure to check if you are eligible for the credit by confirming that your home meets the prescriptive requirements established for it under the 2009 International Energy Conservation Code.
