Tax Credits For Energy Efficiency Upgrades: They're Restored, And They're RetroactiveBack in 2009, tax credits for energy efficiency upgrades were enacted as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. These tax credits motivated Americans across the country to replace old, inefficient equipment with new high-efficiency HVAC systems, with consumers taking advantage of $290.7 billion in tax credits. The credits expired at the end of 2011, but Congress has reinstated them as part of the "fiscal cliff" agreement of January 2013. Learn the terms of the tax credits for energy efficiency upgrades, and how to qualify.

"Ked was my "usual" service tech for many years. He was always friendly & kind...and didn't mind letting my big dog say hi. He was always professional and efficient. I liked having the piece of mind in knowing my HVAC needs are met & running well. I have used their maintenance plan for many years now, and haven't been disappointed. Well, Caleb didn't disappoint either. He loved my "big boy" and had a great sense of humor. He was very thorough in servicing my air conditioner. I feel I get my money's worth from my maintenance plan each year. I love when they say, "Everything looks good, no problems. See you in the Fall.""
