Does it include the installation cost as well as equipment?

Other rebates, too

If you live in the City of Chicago, or one of the northern 'burbs that Peoples' Gas serves, they have a $ 350.00 cash rebate to the homeowner for a standard efficiency boiler, and $ 600.00 cash rebate for high efficiency boilers.



Other utilities may hove something similar, check with your supplier.



This is on top of the Fed credits.



I am a participating contractor in the Peoples' Gas program.

The only thing about the tax credit is that you only get 1 bite at the apple. IN other words get the best bang for your buck. The program covers more then just HVAC/Heating equipment. As for local rebates, in my market both utliities are giving $1,000 on 90plus, 300 on an indirect and $25.00 a program therm when installed in a new system. They are also giving $100.00 for the addition of outdoor reset controls.
