DON'T LET THIS TAX BREAK GO UP IN SMOKE!

Don’t let up to $1,500 go up in smoke! This December, a Federal Tax credit of up to $1,500 for the purchase of residential biomass heating devices, commonly known as wood and/or pellet stoves and inserts, will fly out the window.

The stoves must be for an existing primary residence and must have an efficiency rating of 75%.

The term 'biomass fuel' means any plant-derived fuel available on a renewable or recurring basis, including agricultural crops and trees, wood and wood waste and residues (including wood pellets), plants (including aquatic plants), grasses, residues, and fibers.
