LAST CHANCE TO SAVE
Leverage tax credits for energy-efficient home upgrades
Jan. 1, 2023, and expires Dec. 31,
2025. In addition, rising energy costs and potential
regulatory changes in 2026, such as updated
guidelines on refrigerant, make late 2025 a strategic
time to upgrade systems.
Smart Ways to Use the Tax Credit
Generally, energy-saving upgrades are some of
the most common home improvement projects
because they enhance the home's overall function
while increasing the potential for cost savings
on energy bills.
Some qualifying upgrades do double-duty by enhancing
the home's curb appeal while reducing
energy requirements. Common examples include
windows, skylights and exterior doors.
Insulation and air sealing materials such as caulk
and weatherstripping are also common choices,
especially in older homes where insulation may
be below current standards and settling has created
gaps for air leaks.
Another common selection for homeowners
looking to take advantage of the 25C tax credit
is climate control systems, and an increasing
number are turning to all-climate, all-electric
heat pumps. One major reason is their high performance
when it comes to energy efficiency.
According to the U.S. Department of Energy,
today's heat pumps can reduce electricity use for
heating by 65% compared to electric resistance
heating. In fact, Mitsubishi Electric all-climate,
all-electric heat pumps have an efficiency rating
at 260-490% compared to traditional systems at
or below 100%.
In addition to their proven track record, contrary
to a popular misconception that all-climate
heat pumps are only for milder regions,
the systems can operate quite effectively in both
high heat and extreme cold. As a result, they
provide homeowners with greater comfort and
control of their indoor climate.
Take Steps to Beat the Deadline

and claim 25C tax credits, now is the ideal
time to get your project underway.

FAMILY FEATURES
Homeowners still have time to take advantage
of a federal tax credit of up to
30% of the cost of eligible energy-efficient
home improvements. The Energy Efficient
Home Improvement Credit (also known as the
25C tax credit) can help offset the expense of
updating or upgrading major home systems
while also lowering energy consumption.
Understanding the 25C Tax Credit
Homeowners in the United States may be eligible
when they install qualifying energy-efficient
equipment in their primary residence such
as all-climate electric heat pumps, insulation,
windows and other improvements. The credit
is subject to some limitations; for example, a
homeowner can only claim up to $2,000 per year
for a heat pump. The installation must be an addition
or improvement to an existing home, not
a new home, and can be used in combination
with other tax credits or incentives such as local,
utility and federal incentives and IRA programs.

for the credit. Your salesperson may be able to

directly for details.

brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, offer
a contractor network with highly skilled, knowledgeable

your 2025 tax forms, you'll need to complete IRS
Form 5695. Specifically, you will need to provide
the manufacturer's pin number and other details
about your purchase, including proof of purchase.
