The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, which changes several provisions
in the Energy Improvement and Extension Act of 2008 (HR 1424), entitles homeowners a
tax credit for qualified energy saving improvements they put in place on their primary residence.
Included in the approved products are qualified garage doors.
The tax credit equals 30% of the product price up to $1500. The credit applies to the product purchase only and does
not include labor. The maximum credit of $1500 is for any and all combined qualified products for the home including
windows, entry doors and garage doors. The qualified improvements must be installed on an existing home between January 1, 2009
and December 31, 2010.
Changes in the new policy state that insulated residential garage doors must have a U-Factor equal to or less than 0.30.
Additional requirements include:
The garage door is installed on the taxpayer's primary residence.
The garage door must be installed on an insulated garage.
There must be a perimeter seal (door stop) used as a means to control air infiltration.
