If you purchased and installed new energy-saving products for your home in 2016, you almost certainly qualify for a TAX CREDIT! The IRS site below has lots of information about what products qualify, but essentially if it’s energy-star rated, it probably qualifies.
- Roof— ENERGY STAR certified metal and asphalt roofs with pigmented coatings or cooling granules designed to reduce heat gain.
- Insulation— Typical bulk insulation products can qualify, such as batts, rolls, blow-in fibers, rigid boards, expanding spray, and pour-in-place.
- Windows— Must be ENERGY STAR certified. Most of the windows we sell will qualify.
- Doors— Must be ENERGY STAR certified. Most of the doors we sell will qualify.
- Skylights— Must be ENERGY STAR certified.
