Emerald Heating and Cooling would like to remind you that the Federal Energy Tax Credit ends on December 31, 2010.

Under the Federal tax credit program, homeowners can receive Federal income tax credit up to 30 percent of the cost of materials up to $1,500 per appliance installed in your home. New construction and rental property do not qualify.

According to the EnergyStar website, your energy efficient appliance must be purchased and installed before the end of 2010. Please note, when filing your taxes in April, you will need to complete IRS Form 5695.  Be sure to include the manufacturer’s certification statement as well.

If you are unsure if your product qualifies for this tax credit, we encourage you to contact our Buffalo heating experts.

Did you know that your older, less efficient heating and cooling unit could be wasting money every month on utility bills?

Depending on how old your system is, a new high-efficiency system could save you up to 40% of your heating and cooling utility costs.  So, it often makes more sense to replace you system rather than continue to repair it – you save even more as utility costs continue to rise!

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act provides a tax credit of 30% of the intalled cost of qualifying high-efficiency heating and air conditioning equipment, up to a maximum of $1,500 for 2009 and 2010 combined.

Keep in mind, to receive your credit, your new unit must be installed before Dec 31st.

Let our Buffalo heating company help you make the most of this opportunity.  Contact us to find out which high-efficiency heating and cooling products qualify for this tax credit.

Specific information on how to claim the tax credit should be obtained directly from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service.  We can provide you, the homeowner, with Manufacturer’s Certification Statements for your records and to support your Tax Credit claims for these systems.

This is your last chance.  The National Fuel Conservation Incentive Program, which offers residential and small non-residential customers money-saving rebates, ends tomorrow,  November 30, 2010.

If you have been thinking about purchasing an Energy Star rated programmable thermostat or replacing specific appliances with new, energy-efficient models, our Buffalo heating experts can help you. 

Act now and save. You’ll be amazed at how quickly these new units can pay for themselves.

Older furnaces are not nearly as fuel efficient as today’s high efficiency models.  Even if it’s still in good working condition, your older furnace could be using approximately 20% more fuel than a new high efficiency furnace. And an old water heater could be just as inefficient as an old furnace.

You Could Save A Lot of Money

The National Fuel Conservation Incentive Program offers residential and small non-residential customers in National Fuel’s Western New York area a number of money-saving rebates when you buy an Energy Star rated programmable thermostat or when you replace specific appliances with new, energy-efficient models.  When you combine the rebates with the projected annual fuel savings realized by using more efficient equipment, you’d be amazed at how quickly these new units can pay for themselves.

Let Emerald Heating and Cooling help you with your Buffalo heating needs.
