While it has been in effect since 2009, many consumers have become aware of it this year due to more exposure in the market. As a <a href="http://www.window-replacement-experts.com" rel="nofollow">San Antonio Window Replacement</a>company, the Tax Credit has figured greatly into our sales equation. Most homeowners we visit with know about the credit and automatically ask that the windows we quote be tax credit compliant. I believe that the Tax Credit is helping to enable more replacement window projects, but if consumers don't have money to spend, no tax credit will get them off of center. I am happy that the credit is in place, I like the stringent requirements for window performance that it requires, and I believe we will be better off for the work that it has created. My one worry is that it is creating a false economy with replacement windows. Once it expires in 2010, what then? Without the incentive of a tax credit out there, customers may pull back on projects. It is my hope that this is not the case, but we will have to see as we roll into 2011. The Federal Tax Credit has certainly had an impact on the replacement window industry in 2010.
