Current Warranty Information (100 KB)
Federal tax credits for windows and doors have been extended through 2011 - with some significant changes.
Qualifying Products:
Windows and exterior doors that comply with Energy Star requirements in your region (Find your ENERGY STAR climate zone) are eligible for the tax credit. Products must be installed in the consumer's existing primary residence. New construction is not eligible.
Credit Amount:
For qualifying windows and doors installed between January 1 and December 31, 2011:
- Windows may qualify for a tax credit of 10% with a cap of $200
- Exterior doors may qualify for a tax credit of 10% with a cap of $500
Lifetime Cap:
The new law sets a lifetime limit of $500.00 in tax credits for qualifying purchases made between January 1, 2006 and December 31, 2011. This is not in addition to the $1500.00 limit that was in place for 2009-2010. If you have already reached or exceeded the $500.00 limit, you are not eligible to claim the credit in 2011. The $500.00 aggregate lifetime limit is for any combination of tax credit qualifying products (HVAC, insulation, roofing, ect.), not just windows and doors. If you have claimed less than $500, you can claim the difference up to the $200 cap for windows and $500 cap for exterior doors.

Sierra Pacific's unique approach to building and selling quality windows and doors begins with the trees.

Select Ponderosa Pine and Douglas Fir are then fabricated into quality components and assembled into some of the finest windows and doors available.
Eleven Regional Service Centers are staffed with professional, factory-trained sales and service personnel. These personnel are ready to provide quick, convenient service long after the sale.
