In an article published by [Metal Roofing Industry News](http://industry.metalroofing.com/2016/02/25/new-tax-credit-for-metal-roofing-member-update/), a report by the MRA states that the U.S. Government has officially approved a $500 tax credit for metal roofs installed in 2015 and 2016. This is a huge deal for Metal Roofers and homeowners alike. Of course with any type of tax credit there are qualifying factors that must be established to receive the credit. ## Qualifying Tax Credit Factors Include:(Factors Listed per MCN.com) - Metal roof must be placed on a homeowner’s principal residence. Tax Credit is for 10% of the cost of the roof, excluding labor, with a maximum deduction of $500. - Metal roofs with appropriate pigmented coatings that also meet ENERGY STAR requirements are eligible.  Visit Energy Star site for more information. - Only highly reflective roofs will qualify – the IRS defines this as “appropriately pigmented coating that is specifically and primarily designed to reduce the heat gain of the dwelling unit.” - This tax credit is for remodeling projects only, not new construction. Homeowners will need a Manufacturer Certification Statement to file with IRS Tax form 5695. - 2015 and 2016 installations are eligible for the deduction. This opens up great opportunities for Metal Roofers to add additional value behind metal roofing systems including StealthBond©.
