Eligibility requirements for ALL HVAC rebates:
In August of 2022, President Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act, which includes provisions for lowering the price of prescription drugs, the extension of certain aspects of the Affordable Care Act, and significant climate protection funding.
This bill also provides funding for programs that allow the federal government to offer specific tax credits and rebates for installing new or upgrading existing HVAC equipment. The most significant rebates are for homes that install multi-zone mini-split heat pump systems. Since this bill is intended to help protect the environment, you’ll probably have to buy an appliance with a higher Energy Star rating than the basic model. There will also be SEER rating minimums that must be adhered to to claim the Federal Energy Tax Credits.
The Federal Energy Tax Credit is a specified amount that the homeowner can subtract from the taxes owed to the IRS to help offset the cost of HVAC improvements. If for 2022, you owed 3,500 in Federal tax, but you spent $5,400 in making upgrades to your climate control systems, you would be entitled to a $1,900 refund.
Tax credits, however, are different from rebates, as a tax credit may never materialize into an actual check. In contrast, rebates are where actual cash payments are made directly to the homeowner. Many of these tax credits and all the rebates have extremely specific qualifications and are intended to be used in lower- to moderate-income neighborhoods.
To file for an energy tax credit, you must complete and file an IRS form 5695 with your tax return. Since this is a tax credit, please don’t consider it a refund. You won’t be getting this money back, but it will be deducted from the taxes you owe for that year.
Allocates $4.3 billion to the Department of Energy to implement a rebate program for homeowners making whole-house energy upgrades. An example of a qualifying upgrade would be replacing an old central HVAC system with a multi-zoned, mini-split heat pump system. Homeowners can claim up to $2,000 (or 30% of the cost) toward the purchase and installation of the heat pump, plus any electrical upgrades needed to ready the home.
Additionally, state-based programs under the HOMES Act umbrella offer low-and moderate-income households rebates on heat pump installations of up to $8,000 and $4,000, respectively, for electrical upgrades.
