For most families, there usually seems to be a lengthy list of home improvement tasks that they need to complete or new ideas they’d like to do. While some may not be necessary, getting a new heat pump is one task that could be key to keeping your indoor space comfortable during the cooler months in Loganville.

Getting a new heat pump is a sizeable investment. You’ll certainly see the return on investment on your indoor comfort as well as your utility costs, but it may be a bit overwhelming at first. The good news is that when you select a new energy-efficient heat pump, you could be eligible for a federal tax credit.

According to ENERGY STAR®, the Non-Business Energy Property Tax Credits were pushed through December 31, 2020. In order to get the tax credit, you must purchase a heat pump that has earned the ENERGY STAR label. When browsing for heat pumps, watch for solutions with the ENERGY STAR rating so you can be certain you’re selecting a high-efficiency heat pump.

At Tony Beck Heating & Cooling, our experts help you find a solution that fits your needs and helps you qualify for this tax credit. While ENERGY STAR products designate high efficiency, you’ll need to confirm the heat pump you pick has the following requirements.

For Split Systems:

  • Heating Seasonal Performance Factor (HSPF): 8.5 or higher
  • Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER): 12.5 or higher
  • Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER): 15 or higher

For Package Systems:

  • HSPF: 8 or higher
  • EER: 12 or higher
  • SEER: 14 or higher

Taking advantage of this opportunity is not going to be the only savings you’ll receive when you select a new high-efficiency heat pump. Many of the most efficient solutions can save you hundreds of dollars on your energy bills during the year. And your household will also have more confidence in your HVAC system to help your home stay at just the right temperature.

If you have questions about your eligibility for a tax credit, or if there are additional local savings you could be eligible for by getting a new high-efficiency heat pump, give our team at Tony Beck Heating & Cooling a call at 770-466-2924. You can also visit ENERGY STAR or reach out to your local utility establishment if you have questions about other eligible home products.
