Energy Policy Act

Fi-Foil Helps You Capitalize On the Federal, State and Local Tax Credits and Deductions...

Fi-Foil is committed to helping you, your company and your customers take advantage of the incentives available through the various Government programs.

For Existing Homes

On December 21, 2010, President Obama singed the Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010.  This law extends the tax credits for energy efficiency into 2011, BUT at lower levels. The levels revert back to those in effect in 2006 and 2007, which were 10% of the cost of the improvement, up to $500, with a $200 maximum for windows, and several other set maximums.

Highlights:

  • 10% up to $500 for insulation*, roofs and doors.
  • Windows capped at $200, but qualification now ENERGY STAR.
  • Furnace and boilers capped at $150, and all furnaces and boilers must meet 95 AFUE.
  • $50 for advanced main air circulating fan.
  • $300 for air conditioners, water heaters and biomass stoves.
  • $500 lifetime limit. If you got over $500 in these tax credits from 2006-2010, you are not eligible for anything else.

*What is included in the Tax Credit for Insulation?
Tax credit:
10% of cost, up to $500 (material only)
