Peoria, IL – Nov. 29, 2023 – Bratcher Heating and Air Conditioning, a leader in providing top-tier HVAC solutions, is proud to announce a groundbreaking new tax credit program. Spearheaded by Vice President and General Manager Brian Houchin, this initiative aims to accelerate the adoption of energy-efficient technology in homes and businesses across the United States.
In recent years, the HVAC industry has witnessed a remarkable growth in the demand for energy-efficient systems. Statistics from the Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI) reveal a significant increase in the shipment of air-source heat pumps, with a 14.8 percent rise from January 2016 to January 2017, followed by 12.9 percent from January 2017 to January 2018, and 9.1 percent from January 2018 to January 2019. This trend underscores a growing awareness and preference for energy-saving technologies among consumers.
Moreover, the market for ground-source heat pumps has seen an extraordinary surge, with sales climbing by 37 percent from 2017 to 2018. This upswing, as noted by Doug Dougherty, President and CEO of the Geothermal Exchange Organization (GEO), is largely attributed to the reinstatement of federal tax credits for geothermal systems. Despite these gains, geothermal technology still accounts for a mere 1.7 percent of the market, signaling a vast potential for growth.
Recognizing this opportunity, Brian Houchin and Bratcher Heating and Air Conditioning are committed to making energy-efficient heating and cooling systems more accessible and affordable for consumers. “Our new tax credit program is designed to not only encourage the purchase of greener technology but also to support our customers in making sustainable choices that benefit both their wallets and the environment,” said Brian Houchin.
The program will offer substantial tax credits to customers who invest in qualifying energy-efficient HVAC systems, including both air-source and ground-source heat pumps. This initiative aligns with Bratcher Heating and Air Conditioning’s long-standing commitment to environmental stewardship and its mission to deliver state-of-the-art HVAC solutions.
