You can get a credit on your Oregon income taxes for purchasing energy-efficient HVAC systems:
- Air conditioners,
- Premium efficiency wood and pellet stoves,
-
Furnaces, boilers, and air handlers,
- Heat pumps,
- Ductless heat pumps
- Geothermal heat pumps,
- Heat recovery and energy recovery ventilation equipment, and
- Testing and sealing your heating ducts
Eligible models of equipment are included on the Oregon Department of Energy list of qualifying systems.(See qualifying lists in right-hand column as you scroll down the page.)
We update these lists as qualifying equipment comes on the market.
Important: For heat pump and air conditioning installation and diagnostics, and for duct testing and sealing, we require that an Oregon Department of Energy tax credit-certified technician perform the work. (See lists of tax credit-certified technicians in the right-hand column.)
The tax credit is based on the amount of energy saved above standard models. The tax credit is the amount noted on the list of qualifying equipment or 25 percent of the net purchase price of the equipment (not including labor), whichever is less.
To qualify for a tax credit, you must have an Oregon income tax liability. If you are an Oregon resident and do not have an Oregon income tax liability, you may choose to transfer your tax credit to an Oregon resident who does. This is done by checking the Pass-through Option section on the application form. More information is on the form.
The equipment must be located in an Oregon dwelling that is your primary or secondary residence to qualify for a tax credit.
To receive your tax credit certification by April 15, please submit your tax credit application to the Oregon Department of Energy by April 1 of the year following your purchase. You may still apply for a tax credit after April 1, but may have to amend your tax filings to claim your credit.
