Federal Tax Credits for Water Heaters

In an effort to continue promoting energy efficiency, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has updated its tax credit offerings for homeowners in 2024. These credits apply to high-efficiency heating, cooling, and water-heating equipment. This blog highlights federal tax credits available for qualifying products, including those from Rheem® Air Conditioning and Rheem® Water Heating divisions. By leveraging these tax credits, homeowners can save money while upgrading their homes with energy-efficient solutions. We will also explore the availability of state, local, and utility rebates in residential energy markets.

Updated Federal Tax Credits for 2024

The Taxpayer Certainty Disaster and Tax Relief Act continues to provide tax credits for high-efficiency home upgrades. The IRS now offers homeowners a maximum tax credit of 30% of the installation cost of qualifying heating and cooling systems, with a cap of up to $2,000. The new provisions aim to make it more affordable for households to improve energy efficiency.

Nonbusiness Energy Property Credit

Homeowners may receive a tax credit for specific high-efficiency water heating systems. The Rheem® Water Heating Division certifies several models eligible for the $300 credit in 2024, including ENERGY STAR® certified gas water heaters and Hybrid Heat Pump Water Heaters. To qualify, these systems must meet updated ENERGY STAR® criteria for energy performance.

State, Local, and Utility Rebates

In addition to federal tax credits, homeowners can explore other money-saving opportunities through state, local, and utility rebates. For example, certain states and local energy providers offer cash rebates for purchasing ENERGY STAR® certified tankless water heaters or other energy-efficient appliances.
