Ready to Make the 2009 Stimulus Work for You?

There's no time like the present. You can win more bids by quickly getting up to speed on the provisions in the 2009 federal stimulus plan.

Increased tax incentives and other credits are now available for the installation of energy-efficient propane appliances including tankless water heaters and high-efficiency furnaces.

What this means for you: an estimated $6 billion in potential remodeling work by the end of 2010, according to Congressional economists' projection.

Three key points you need to know about the stimulus legislation:

 
 
 


Homeowners can get a $1,500 credit


The tax credits available to homeowners who replace energy-hogging appliances with efficient propane appliances have increased significantly.
Homeowners can get up to $1,500 toward the equipment, labor, and materials cost of an upgrade to a high-efficiency propane furnace or water heater.

Homeowners can "double dip"


Homeowners can also tap incentives from state programs and state propane organization programs for efficiency upgrades to propane.
In some situations, a homeowner can effectively "double dip," getting two or more incentives on the same electric-to-propane appliance change-out.

There is an $8,000 tax credit available for first-time home buyers who purchase a home built with energy-efficient propane systems.
This tax credit, which can help buyers get "more house" for their money, covers homes built with energy-efficient propane furnaces and water heaters.
