The enacted American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, or the Stimulus Bill, offers you incentives for improving your home’s energy efficiency. For 2009 and 2010, the tax credit for qualified energy efficiency improvements is 30% of the amount paid up to $1,500 maximum.

Qualifying and Claiming Tax Credit is Easy
To get in on the energy cost savings, as well as the attractive tax incentives:
• Purchase qualifying windows or doors from Sunrise Windows, then save your sales receipt and the NFRC/ENERGY STAR label with your tax documents.
• Have your windows or doors professional installed between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2010.
• Claim the tax credit on your federal filing for the 2009 and/or 2010 tax year.

A “qualifying” window or door is one that carries both a U-Factor equal to or less than 0.30 and a Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC) equal to or less than 0.30. You can find more information on energy ratings and qualifying products at the ENERGY STAR® website.
