Additional Information About the Energy Tax Credits
Some – but not all – of Trane’s products may qualify for the tax credit. We have included a summary of the bill as it applies to residential HVAC equipment:
 |
- Split system air conditioning efficiency requirements – 16 SEER/13 EER
(both efficiency levels must be met to qualify for the tax credit).
- Split system heat pump efficiency requirements – 15 SEER/12.5 EER/8.5 HSPF
(all three efficiency levels must be met to qualify for the tax credit).
- Gas furnace qualifying levels – 95% AFUE.
- Packaged A/C, H/P, or dual fuel products – 14 SEER, 12 EER, 8 HSPF.
- Maximum tax credit amount – $1500. The legislation specifies 30% of the cost of qualifying equipment, including installation costs, subject to a $1500 maximum per homeowner.
- The tax credit is effective for all qualified systems installed from 1/1/2009 through 12/31/2010.
- The tax credit is only valid for taxpayers that own their home and it is used as the principal residence.
