Upgrading your home’s insulation and air sealing areas of energy loss can provide several benefits, like lower utility bills and more home comfort. Luckily, there are incentives available throughout Long Island that can help make these crucial home improvements more affordable.
Home Efficiency Experts stays up to date with tax credits and rebates available to homeowners in Nassau and Suffolk counties so we can help our clients maximize their savings on our insulation and HVAC services. Here’s what insulation and air sealing incentives are on our radar for 2025.
Energy Efficient Home Improvement Tax Credit
Homeowners can earn a federal tax credit covering 30% of the total cost for insulation and air sealing upgrades, excluding on-site labor costs, up to $1,200 in 2025. Tax credits are a dollar-for-dollar reduction of your federal tax liability, reducing the amount of taxes you owe for any given year.
To be eligible for the insulation tax credit, you must have a taxable income and the improvements must be made on your primary residence located in the United States. Then, either you or your tax professional can fill out IRS Form 5695 to claim the insulation tax credit for the year upgrades are made. The credit can be claimed year after year as upgrades are made, but if your tax liability reaches zero, any remaining balance will not roll over to the following year. According to the IRS Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit page, “beginning in 2025, for each item of qualifying property placed in service, no credit will be allowed unless the item was produced by a qualified manufacturer and the taxpayer reports the PIN for the item on their tax return.”
