Earning an Energy Tax Rebate While Putting in Replacement Windows
09/02/2009
After years of putting plastic on our windows during the cold winter months, we decided to put in replacement windows. I had heard from a colleague of mine that you could earn an energy tax rebate for putting in replacement windows. The first thing for us to do was to have someone give us an estimate.
I called three different companies and had they all come to give us estimates. I thought that replacement windows were going to be very expensive but I was happy to learn that it was very affordable. On top of them being affordable, I earned the energy tax rebate too. I decided to go with the last company since they could work us in the quickest. They scheduled the job for about three days after they gave us the estimate.
I was shocked to see the old windows come out and the new replacement windows going in. I knew that I would not have to hang plastic in the new windows and that made me very happy. I knew also that our heating and cooling bills would be less with the replacement windows. When the job was completed and we had paid for everything, we sat back and looked at the house. We were very proud of the improvements we had made to our home.
