Homeowners can claim up to a maximum of $1,500 in tax credits for all energy efficient home improvements.

For Mitsubishi Electric HVAC split heat-pump systems, this means 30 percent of the cost of heat pump installation including equipment, materials and labor. The tax credit was effective February 17, 2009 after President Obama signed the new American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (also known as the Stimulus Bill).

Example of Savings If a consumer purchases the MSZ/MUZFE12NA split system for $3,480, which includes equipment, materials, electrical and labor installation costs, then:

Cost Estimation

MSZ/MUZ-FE12NA = $2,130 (List Price)* + Materials and Labor** = $1,300 Total installed price: $3,480

$3,480 x 0.30 = $1,044 in tax credits!
$456 still available to be applied to other home improvements.

* Equipment costs may vary from list price.
** Depends on local codes and requirements and are an estimate for example purposes.
