Ductless Mini-Split Systems Tax Credit

Tax Savings Now, Energy Savings From Now On!

If you purchased a Lennox^® ductless mini-split air conditioner or heat pump in 2012-2013, you may be eligible for a tax credit of up to 10% of the installed costs ($300 limit). This credit is offered by the U.S. federal government as part of a larger energy efficiency incentive for home improvements (Residential Energy Credit - 25C). If you claimed $500 or more for enhancements to your home’s exterior (windows, doors, skylights, insulation, roofing, etc.) from 2006 to 2011, your mini-split purchase made in 2012-2013 will be ineligible for a tax credit.
