The government has really pulled out the incentive meter for home improvement these days. We are looking at anywhere from $1500 to $2500 in tax credits if you are insulating attic for energy efficiency. The best thing about a tax credit is that it completely knocks off the amount of the bottom line of your taxes. You literally get $1500 off your tax bill or maybe even a refund! There is other good news too. Adding attic insulation can seriously improve the efficiency of your home. It is not uncommon to see savings of 30% to 40% every single month. Even if it cost you $1000 (which it doesn’t) to insulate your attic, you would make that back pretty quickly especially with the tax credit. Do yourself a favor and do some home improvement in your attic.
