Do you get tax break for adding new windows to your home?

Yes! Beginning in the tax year 2023, the tax law was updated so homeowners can receive an energy tax credit of 30% of the cost of new windows, up to a maximum of $600. 

This was part of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which extends and increases benefits of the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (EEHIC).
