If your HVAC system is on its way out, or you’ve been considering upgrading to an energy-efficient system, now’s the time to act. Thanks to the federal tax credit introduced under the Inflation Reduction Act, you could save up to $3,200 on qualifying energy-efficient HVAC systems. But the clock is ticking: these credits expire on December 31, 2025, making upgrades more expensive after the deadline.
In this article, we break down which tax credits are expiring this year, the benefits for homeowners, and how you can claim your savings before they disappear.
What Are the Federal Tax Credits?
The federal tax credits were introduced by the Biden Administration in 2022 as part of the Inflation Reduction Act to incentivize homeowners to make their homes more energy efficient. These credits let homeowners claim 30% – up to $3,200 total – on qualifying eco-friendly HVAC upgrades.
Eligible Systems Include:
Important: Qualifying systems must be installed on or before December 31, 2025. After that, the tax credits expire.

Who Can Take Advantage?

- A renter making eligible improvements
Note: The tax credits apply to existing homes being improved or added to. New construction is not eligible.
How to Claim Your Tax Credits?
Claiming the credits is straightforward, but not automatic:

- You can’t claim more than you owe in taxes, and you can’t apply excess credit to future tax years
- Work with a licensed tax professional to make sure you’re filing correctly
