Get Money Back with Federal Tax Credits

​

The Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (also known as the 25C tax credit) is a valuable incentive that helps make home upgrades more affordable. This tax credit reduces the amount of taxes you owe, meaning if you owe federal taxes for the year in which you made qualifying home improvements, you can benefit from it. Energy Audits with Lakewood Home Energy qualify for 30% tax credit up to 150 dollars, and 30% credit on air sealing and insulation materials

​


The Insulation Tax Credit

The Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit is a federal tax credit equaling 30% of the total cost for a variety of energy efficiency home upgrades, including qualifying insulation and air sealing expenses. There is an annual maximum credit of $1,200 for the category of upgrades that includes insulation.

  • Available to anyone with federal tax liability

  • Can be combined with other incentives and insulation rebates

  • $150 credit for energy audits

  • Can be claimed in multiple years (but not for the same upgrade)

As the homeowner, you claim this tax credit directly when you file your taxes for the year in which the insulation was installed. Our itemized final invoice will include your tax-credit-eligible costs, making the process easy!​
