The state and federal government offer incentives to reduce energy
usage, mostly in the form of tax credits. The tax regulations vary from
year to year, so it is important to consult with a tax specialist when
looking at appliance energy tips. In general, you may be able to deduct
at least part of the purchase cost of an energy-efficient appliance
along with the installation fees on your federal tax return using IRS
form 5695.
In addition to the federal tax benefits, some local utility services
offer discounts and rebates for switching to more energy-friendly
appliances. It is worth a visit to the utility company website to see if
they have a program that encourages energy efficiency.
