Your 2025 Shutter Installation May Be Eligible For A 2025 Tax Credit

Thank you for your interest in the 2025 federal energy tax credit. This tax credit is for those who have purchased and installed Polywood shutters in 2025.

Please note that the time to install eligible shutters has passed, and these steps are for the 2025 federal tax credit. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact us.

NOTE: The Polywood Shutter qualifies under Section 25C Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit as an insulating building envelope component. It is not subject to the Qualified Manufacturer (QMID) and/or PIN requirements. Please consult with your tax advisor as to how to properly include this tax credit information in your tax return.


How You Can Benefit From The Energy Tax Credit When Installing Polywood Shutters

The Energy Tax Credit is beneficial to residents who install approved energy-efficient upgrades. Sunburst Shutters is proud to offer the only approved plantation shutters in Cleveland. Abide by these guidelines to receive the energy tax credit in Cleveland when installing Polywood shutters:

  1. Buy energy-conserving Polywood shutters from Sunburst Shutters Cleveland in 2025.
  2. Shutters must be placed in your main residence—not in a rental or second home.
  3. Include the Manufacturer’s Certificate when filing your 2025 taxes in 2025.
  4. You’ll receive a tax credit of 30% of your Polywood shutters purchase price, to a max of $1200.
  5. The credit only pertains to taxes owed. It shouldn’t be confused with a rebate. If no taxes are owed, no credit will be provided.
 
 

Polywood Shutters Are Still The Best Window Treatment For Energy Efficiency

Polywood shutters were created as an insulating system and are the leading energy-efficient window treatments in Cleveland. Dissimilar to any other plantation shutter, Polywood shutters have proprietary weatherstripping to halt external temperatures that might otherwise enter through your windows. Polywood’s enhanced outer coating, fabrication density, and other attributes also result in these shutters being the most energy-efficient window treatments you are able to purchase.

Polywood thermal testing showing superior energy efficiency

Outside testing concludes that Polywood shutters inhibit up to 30 degrees of airflow going through a window and have a 45.96% reduction in heat transfer. They also have been proven to be up to 70% more energy-efficient than wood shutters and 1600% better than traditional aluminum blinds. This kind of insulation results in noticeable energy savings!
