The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 includes tax credits that reward homeowners for purchasing certain high-efficiency HVAC equipment.
There’s Never Been a Better Time to Buy Our Highest Efficiency Systems.
Our highest-efficiency heating and cooling systems offer several homeowner benefits. From energy savings, to comfort-enhancing innovations like Greenspeed® intelligence, to longer component-specific warranties, there's a lot to like. And now there’s another potential benefit, thanks to Uncle Sam: the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.
