Yes, some roofs can qualify for a tax credit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
How much:<\/strong><\/td>\n30% of the cost (not including installation\/labor costs<\/a>), up to $1,500<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Timing:<\/strong><\/td>\nTax credit in effect in 2009 and 2010. Must be installed on your “principal residence”<\/a> between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2010.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Details:<\/strong><\/td>\n“Metal roofs with appropriate pigmented coatings”<\/strong> and “asphalt roofs with appropriate cooling granules”<\/strong> that also meet ENERGY STAR requirements are eligible.<\/p>\n

Roof coatings are NOT eligible for the tax credit.<\/p>\n

The roofs that are eligible are “reflective roofs.” Reflective roofs are not for everyone. They will provide the most benefit in hot sunny climates where you are using your air conditioning a lot. If your house is already shaded and the roof is not exposed to much sun, then a reflective roof may not provide a significant benefit. The benefits will also be lessened if your attic space is well insulated.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Find qualified models:<\/strong><\/td>\nUnfortunately, a simple list of all roofs that qualify for the tax credit does not exist.<\/p>\n

There are many metal<\/strong><\/strong> and asphalt<\/strong> (either shingles or “Modified Bitumen”) roofs listed on the ENERGY STAR qualified product list. EPA can not confirm that these ENERGY STAR qualified roofs are eligible for the tax credit. Check with the manufacturer, and ask them to provide a Manufacturer Certification Statement<\/a>.<\/a><\/p>\n

If you want to look at the ENERGY STAR qualified roof list, look in the “Type” column for:<\/p>\n

Metal roofs will have a Type = “Metal” (~ 2,000 metal roofs on ENERGY STAR list)<\/p>\n

Asphalt Roofs will have a Type =<\/p>\n

How to apply:<\/strong><\/td>\nFile Tax Form 5695 with your tax return.<\/a><\/p>\n

You must have a Manufacturer’s Certification Statement<\/a> to qualify.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

The law specifies: Any metal roof or asphalt roof installed on a dwelling unit, but only if such roof has appropriate pigmented coatings or cooling granules which are specifically and primarily designed to reduce the heat gain of such dwelling unit.<\/em><\/p>\n
