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.


Steps For Getting The Energy Tax Credit By Installing Polywood Shutters

The Energy Tax Credit benefits residents who install qualifying energy-efficient products. Sunburst Shutters is proud to offer the only qualifying louvered shutters in Tampa. Follow these steps to earn the energy tax credit in Tampa when installing Polywood shutters:

  1. Purchase energy-efficient Polywood shutters from Sunburst Shutters Tampa in 2025.
  2. Shutters must be placed in your primary residence—not in a rental or second home.
  3. Be sure to have the Manufacturer’s Certificate when filing your 2025 taxes in 2025.
  4. You’ll enjoy a tax credit of 30% on the purchase price of your Polywood shutters, to a maximum of $1200.
  5. The credit only applies to the tax you owe. It is not a rebate. If no taxes are owed, there is no credit to be given.
 
 

Polywood Shutters Are Still The Best Window Treatment For Energy Efficiency

Polywood shutters were manufactured as an innovative system of insulation and have become the leading energy-efficient window treatments in Tampa. Dissimilar to every other louvered shutter, Polywood shutters come with proprietary weatherstripping to halt external temperatures that could otherwise get by your windows. Polywood’s chemically bonded finish, material density, and other features also play a role 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 block up to 30 degrees of airflow coming through a window and offer a 45.96% decrease in heat transference. They also have been shown to be up to 70% more energy-conserving than wood shutters and 1600% more efficient than traditional aluminum blinds. This sort of insulation results in sizable energy savings!
