π°π Money-Saving Monday: Donβt Count on the 2026 Home Energy Credit
Planning to replace your furnace, windows, water heater, or other energy-efficient equipment?
Hereβs an important tax update: The federal Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit ended for qualifying property placed in service after December 31, 2025.
The Residential Clean Energy Credit also ended for qualifying expenditures after December 31, 2025.
π If you completed qualifying work in 2025, keep the documentation needed to claim the applicable 2025 credit on your 2025 tax return.
If youβre planning a home improvement project in 2026, donβt assume the federal credit is still available.
π Before starting a project, check the current tax rules and talk with your tax professional.
