Upgrade Your Home & Wallet With Federal Tax Credits for Energy-Efficient Windows & Doors

Want to enhance your home’s energy efficiency while saving money? We have great news for you. The federal government is offering tax credits for families who upgrade to energy-efficient windows and doors.

By taking advantage of this incentive, you can reduce your carbon footprint and enjoy continued savings on your energy expenses.

Navigating through the tax credit process can be challenging. That’s why we’ve put together this guide to help you understand the requirements and make the most of this opportunity.

Understanding the Tax Credit

The federal tax credit for energy-efficient windows and doors is effective for products purchased and installed between Jan. 1, 2023, and Dec. 31, 2032. To qualify for the tax credit, the windows and doors you install must adhere to ENERGY STAR’s “Most Efficient” rating.

It’s important to note that not all windows and doors qualify for the tax credit. ENERGY STAR® has a list of brands that meet the “Most Efficient” rating, and certain brands — such as Interstate — are included.

However, to achieve the highest efficiency rating, you may need to upgrade the glass with additional Low-E coatings or choose triple-insulated glass.

Benefits of Energy-Efficient Windows & Doors

Upgrading to energy-efficient windows and doors offers several benefits to homeowners, including:

• Reduced energy consumption: Energy-efficient windows and doors are designed to minimize heat transfer, keeping your home cooler in summer and warmer in winter. You can significantly lower your energy bills by reducing the need for excessive heating and cooling.
• Improved indoor comfort: Upgrading to energy-efficient windows and doors can help regulate indoor temperatures, reduce drafts, and minimize outside noise, contributing to a more pleasant living environment for you and your family.
• Positive environmental impact: By reducing your energy consumption, you help lower greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change effects. It’s a small change that can help make a big difference when adopted by many homeowners.

How To Claim the Tax Credit

You’ll need to keep track of your purchases and installations to claim the tax credit. Save all receipts and documentation related to your energy-efficient windows and doors. When filing your federal tax return, use IRS Form 5695 to claim the Residential Energy Efficient Property Credit.
