At Perfect Fit Window Fashions serving Estero, Florida, we’re always excited to pass savings on to our customers. Frequently, that comes in the form of rebates direct from Hunter Douglas, but right now through the end of the year, we’re happy to point customers to savings through federal tax credits. Read on to learn about how it works, and be sure to speak with one of our representatives for full details, including eligible products.
Earning Tax Credits: An Overview
Did you know that one of the biggest sources of energy loss in many homes is windows? Especially in homes with older windows, outside air is more able to travel in while inside air can leak out. That’s why the U.S. government is rewarding energy-efficient window treatment purchases—to help homeowners insulate at their windows and reduce energy usage. For this program, you have until December 31, 2023, to make a qualifying purchase that could earn you up to 30% return on the purchase price (what you pay for the product itself, including sales tax, but not the cost of installation) in the form of federal tax credits that can reach a max of $1,200. Be sure to keep your sales receipt, print out the Hunter Douglas certification, and give them to your tax advisor at tax time next year.
Qualifying Products
Select Hunter Douglas Duette® Honeycomb Shades (including Architella® and Applause®) in select sizes can earn tax credits. (Note that adding some special features might void the product’s eligibility.) Duette Honeycomb shades offer a simple, sleek look for modern spaces, but also work well in traditional settings.
- Pick Applause honeycomb shades if you are looking for energy savings at an affordable price but still want the quality of the Hunter Douglas brand. Unlike some other brands of cellular shades, Applause is created with a double cell, which offers increased insulation over regular single-cell construction. Applause can be customized for windows of specialty shapes, including arches, angles, ovals, skylights, and more.
- The Duette® Architella® honeycomb shades, with their revolutionary cell-within-a-cell construction, reduce unwanted solar heat up to 80% in the summer and cut heat loss at the window up to 40% in the winter. The Duette shade offers privacy, insulation, and light control for your home.
