$1500 tax credit - new for 2011?

[wildlandfirefighterswife]

Just wondering if anyone has heard any rumors about a new credit for 2011? I wonder if there is not any credits available if stove prices will come down after the credit expires. I am not sure what stove prices pre-credit were running. We don't have any of the credit available and would be mad if I bought 2 months too early.
Thanks!

I'm not seeing any recent Google hits from past month that talk about an extension.

An extension would not work for us since we claimed the whole credit against our home. ICF construction. I was hoping for a new one.

Good luck on that one Carol. To me it makes sense to extend the credit but right now it appears doubtful that they will.

I think the homestar bill passed the house, and now just has to go to the Senate.....

Boy I hope you are right on this Craig. It is needed.

Homestar passed the house ages ago - I see no movement on the senate side. How next week will affect this as well - who knows. I hope it gets passed, I want to install an air source water heater.

C.N. -

Are you talking about something along the line of a "Geyser" type of unit?

Sorry about the derail of the thread...

+1. I've been following it as well, hoping to see passage & take full advantage of it as I did the last credit. I don't know for sure whether bio-mass heaters are covered in the House version, but the Alliance For Green Heat are listed as supporters of the bill, so that would indicate that they are included.
