Take advantage of Federal Tax Incentives before December 31, 2010

On February 17, 2009, President Obama made important changes to the homeowner tax credits for specified energy-efficient qualified heating and cooling products. Two of the more significant revisions to this include the extension of the tax credit through 2010 and the increase of the total available tax credit from 10% to 30%. Homeowners who purchase a qualified heating and cooling product between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2010 are now eligible for a tax credit equal to 30% of the full purchase and installation price with a cap of $1,500. 

Tax credits for home owners apply to improvements made to a primary residence from January 1, 2009 through December 31, 2010.
