All eligible Hunter Douglas Duette and Applause Honeycomb products with PowerView (Motorization) Automation qualify for the Federal Tax Credit. Why do all these PowerView (motorized) shade qualify?
Hunter Douglas is known for creating innovative window treatments that offer both style and function. One of their most popular products is the PowerView Motorized Shade System. This motorized system offers a range of features that not only enhance the convenience of your window treatments but also improve your home’s energy efficiency.
One of the main reasons why PowerView motorized shades qualify for tax credits is because there is a minimum size window required for PowerView. The government knows they are covering a decent sized window and not a 12×12.
When connected to PowerView, your shades have the ability to open and close automatically at sunrise and sunset. This feature helps to maximize your home’s energy efficiency by blocking out the sun’s heat during the hottest part of the day and allowing natural light to flow into your home during the cooler parts of the day. By regulating the temperature in your home, you can reduce your energy consumption and lower your utility bills.
Another key benefit of PowerView motorized shades is the ability to control them remotely. Whether you’re in another room or out of the house, you can easily adjust your shades with the touch of a button on your phone. This not only enhances your convenience, but also allows you to optimize your energy usage by opening and closing your shades as needed throughout the day.
To determine if any non-motorized Hunter Douglas Honeycomb product qualifies for the Federal Tax Credit, please ask your Nuance Professional during a free in-home consultation.
