FAQ — Insulation & Air Sealing rebates in Florida

How much can I get back on a insulation & air sealing in Florida in 2026?

Total potential savings on a $3,800 insulation & air sealing: $1,600. Federal 25C/25D/30C credits are expired and contribute $0; up to $1,600 may come from the income-qualified IRA HEEHRA point-of-sale rebate. Net out-of-pocket: $2,200 (best case) to $3,800 (without HEEHRA).

Is the IRA HEEHRA rebate live in Florida right now?

Florida HEEHRA status: PENDING. ○ Plan approved by DOE, consumer rebates not yet active. Federal 25C/25D/30C credits are expired; state/utility programs are the remaining incentive layer. HEEHRA point-of-sale rebates will start once Florida launches its program; until then, state and utility incentives are the usable layer.

Can I still claim a federal tax credit for this project?

Not for a new 2026 project. The 25C and 25D credits ended for property placed in service after Dec 31, 2025, and the 30C EV-charger credit ended after June 30, 2026. Qualifying 2025 installs may still be claimed on the applicable prior-year IRS form; new installs should budget on gross cost minus state, utility, or HEEHRA incentives only.

Can my Florida contractor pad their quote to absorb my rebate?

Yes — this is the single most common abuse in the post-IRA market. The clearest red flag: a quote that's higher than your state's typical range for insulation & air sealing by exactly the amount of the rebate. Always: (1) get the quote BEFORE mentioning rebates, (2) cross-check against Florida fair-price data, (3) refuse "rebate handling fees" — HEEHRA point-of-sale is supposed to be applied without additional contractor markup.
