Hello everyone, I hope 2013 is starting out well for you! I have some good news. The Energy Tax Credits for installing high efficiency heating and cooling equipment that expired Dec 31, 2011 are back! And, they are retro-active to Jan 1, 2012. So, if you installed a new high efficiency heating and cooling system in 2012, then you may qualify for a tax credit this year.
A gas furnace with an annual fuel utilization efficiency of 95% or higher can qualify for a credit of $150.00. If your indoor unit has an advanced circulatory fan (a.k.a. a variable speed motor) you can qualify for an additional $50.00. And, if your outdoor unit is 16 SEER or higher (15 SEER for heat pumps) then you may qualify for a $300.00 tax credit.
