Tax Rebate for Energy Efficient Improvements.

If you haven't heard the full story, on February 17 the Obama Administration signed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Tax Act allowing up to $1500 in tax rebates for Energy Star windows, doors, and skylights. We think this program will be very helpful over the next year for anyone looking to make home improvements and save some money. In addition to this rebate, you will notice a reduction in your household energy expenses for years to come. As of June 1st, in order for windows and doors to pass through this program, they must have a NFRC label. The NFRC stands for the National Fenestration Rating Council, which is the only federal institution that determines the official performance of windows, doors, and skylights in saving energy. Make sure to hold onto your manufacture certification, it will provide some relief next April!
