What this tool is and why it helps
The Rebate & Tax-Credit Checklist is a free download you can use while planning an insulation project. It helps you keep track of the programs you may want to check before you agree to a job.
Many homeowners miss savings because program rules can be confusing. Some rebates come from a utility company. Others may come from a state or local program. There may also be a federal tax credit for certain energy-efficiency improvements. But these offers change over time and can vary by location, utility, home type, and project details.
This checklist gives you one place to organize what to ask, what to confirm, and what documents to keep. It can also help you compare insulation estimates more clearly when you start looking at costs or talking to local installers through get matched.
How to use it
Use the checklist before you choose an installer and before you pay a deposit.
- Write down the areas you want to insulate, such as the attic, walls, or crawlspace.
- Check with your utility company and any state or local energy-efficiency program to see what is currently available.
- Ask each installer which insulation type and R-value the job is designed to reach. R-value is a simple measure of how well insulation slows heat flow.
- Confirm whether the program has rules about approved materials, licensed contractors, paperwork, inspections, or timing.
- Keep copies of estimates, invoices, product details, and any program forms in one folder.

Always confirm current program details with the utility, program administrator, or a tax professional. And always hire licensed and insured installers and verify that yourself.
