On February
17, 2009 President Obama signed the American Recovery
and Reinvestment Act of 2009 into law, thus providing
great benefit to the home improvement industry and
consumers alike. The following summarizes the Act as it
relates to the products we sell and should address any
questions you may have. Feel free to contact us if you
need additional information.
How much is the Tax Credit
30% of the cost of the goods, subject to a maximum $1500
ceiling. The 30% can not be applied against costs of
installation only against the cost of the products. If
your work order does not break down the cost of product
vs. labor, use the following chart to determine the
eligible amount for the material cost:
Product Materials
Windows 85%
Doors 85%
Siding 19% (The Act only covers
Insulation Cost, not the Siding itself)
