An energy-efficient home results in many benefits for homeowners. While beneficial to the local environment, it can also help keep home running costs down. On top of that, another financial benefit can be tax credits for any upgrades you make that contribute to your existing home’s energy efficiency.

As we exit tax season, start thinking about the upgrades to your home you’ve been dreaming of! If you plan to undertake home improvement projects this year that meet specific requirements, you can recoup 30% of the cost with the Energy-Efficient Home Improvement Credits.
