01 Dec How a New HVAC System Before Year-End Can Save You Money
As the year winds down, most Texans are focused on holiday plans and wrapping up projects before the calendar flips. But there’s one more move that could pay off big, both now and in the years to come: upgrading your HVAC system before December 31. At Boerne AC & Heating, we like to call this a smart comfort investment! A new HVAC system is one of the few home improvements that can literally start paying you back from day one.
Take Advantage of 2025 Tax Credits & Incentives
Thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act, homeowners can still take advantage of federal tax credits for qualifying energy-efficient HVAC systems through December 31, 2025, but you’ll want to have your installation completed by year-end to claim your deduction on your 2025 tax filing.
Here’s what you could be eligible for:
- Up to $2,000 in federal tax credits for installing an ENERGY STAR® certified heat pump system.
- Up to $600 in credits for upgrading to high-efficiency central air conditioners, furnaces, or advanced controls.
Additional local utility rebates through CPS Energy, GVEC, and other Texas providers (varies by location and system type).
That’s real money back in your pocket, as well as monthly savings from lower energy use.
Lower Energy Bills, Starting Immediately
If your current system is more than 10 years old, chances are it’s operating at 60–70% efficiency. Modern high-efficiency systems can reach SEER2 ratings above 18, cutting your energy consumption by up to 30% or more.
That means:
- Lower monthly utility bills year-round
- Fewer maintenance issues and costly repairs
- More consistent comfort (no more hot spots or cold corners!)
Think of it as a double win—instant comfort, lasting savings.
Add Value and Future-Proof Your Home
Homebuyers love efficiency. A new, high-performance HVAC system doesn’t just make your home more comfortable, it boosts its market appeal. Whether you plan to stay or sell, upgrading your system is one of the smartest ways to improve your home’s value heading into the new year.
And because modern systems use eco-friendly refrigerants and smart thermostats, you’re also future-proofing your home for upcoming efficiency standards and environmental regulations.
Why Now Is the Best Time to Upgrade
End-of-year is one of the most strategic times to replace your system:
- Take advantage of tax credits and rebates before they reset.
- Lock in current equipment pricing before new-year rate increases.
- Beat the rush of spring and summer service calls.
Plus, BAC offers financing options and seasonal promotions, making it easier to get the comfort upgrade your home deserves without waiting until next year.
