If you purchased energy efficient windows or doors in 2012 or plan to do so in 2013, you could take advantage of a Federal Tax Credit. This credit only applies for qualified windows and doors purchased and installed between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2013. If your purchase falls into this time frame, you may be eligible to receive the following tax credits:

1. Windows: Receive 10% back, up to $200
2. Doors: Receive 10% back, up to $500

*The tax credit only applies to the cost of the window, not installation costs

** This tax credit does not apply to new homes.

3. Keep the Receipt & NFRC Label: You will need to show your receipt and NFRC labels from each door or window.
