As part of the Economic Stimulus plan, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 modifies and extends federal tax credits for “qualified energy efficient improvements” which include windows, doors and skylights. The new tax credits are for 30% of the cost of the eligible product up to an aggregate limit of $1,500 for tax years 2009 and 2010. Qualifying window and door products must meet both a U-Factor of 0.30 or lower and a Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC) of 0.30 or lower.
How To Qualify For The 2010 Tax Credit
Purchase a qualifying Pinnacle Energy window or door product. The window or door must have both a U-Factor and SHGC of 0.30 or lower. Save your sales receipt and each window or door performance label (NFRC/ENERGY STAR¨ label) with your tax documents. Purchase and install qualifying products beginning January 1, 2009 through December 31, 2010 and meet all other requirements outlined in the federal tax code. Claim the tax credit associated with your qualifying purchase on your Federal filing for the 2009 and/or 2010 tax year.
