/24-7PressRelease/ -- Maintenance Free Windows, a leading provider of
Atlanta replacement windows, reports on the 2010 federal tax credit for installing replacement window. American tax payers who install energy-efficient windows (and doors) can be eligible for the Residential Energy Property Credit (Section 1121). Homeowners can receive a tax credit for 30% of the cost of qualified energy-efficient windows and doors, up to $1,500.
Maintenance Free Windows encourages homeowners to take advantage of this tax credit, which is in effect until December 31, 2010. The tax credit is a huge opportunity for homeowners to save.
Originally the tax credit was $200 for windows and up to $500 for doors. However, when congress and President Obama passed the American Recovery and Investment Act, known as "The Stimulus," it included a new tax credit for energy efficient windows and doors. The federal government also set a new standard for energy efficiency. Only windows and doors with a U-Factor of .30 or less qualify.
Greg Cassidy, General Manager of Maintenance Free Windows, an
Atlanta windows company specializing in
vinyl replacement windows and vinyl patio doors explains the U-Factor. "U-Factor is a measure of the window's overall energy-efficiency. Many windows have a U-Factor of .31 or .32, which don't qualify." The windows and doors also need to have a Solar Gain Coefficient (SHGC) of .30 or less to qualify for the tax credit. SHGC windows reduce the load on your air conditioning by blocking the sweltering heat that comes through windows in the summer.
