If your furnace is more than 15 years old, it’s probably only 60-70% efficient, which means that 30-40% of every dollar you spend on fuel disappears out the exhaust pipe or through the ductwork.

Installing a new, high-efficiency furnace will cut waste down to 5%, reducing your gas bill and providing you with a reliable heating source for years to come.

A high-efficiency furnace, not only reduces your gas bill in the long run, it can also earn you a tax credit up to $1,500. The federal government is currently offering an energy tax credit of 30% of the cost of installing a new, high-efficiency furnace in your principal residence.

A tax credit is even better than a deduction for the tax payer.  A deduction only reduces the income you have to claim, whereas a tax credit is subtracted directly from the amount of taxes you owe.

But you have to act soon, because this tax credit expires on December 31, 2010.
