New gas fireplace taxable ? Rebates ?

[cvcman]

I didnt think there would be tax on a new fireplace ?? Also is there any tax rebates etc ?

If I am not mistaken I believe there is a tax credit of 30% up to $1500 for qualifying biomass fuel stoves or Wood Heat Stoves, Pellet Stoves, Fireplace Inserts.

but not for fireplaces ? Also they are not tax exempt ?

They aren't tax exempt around here. Are you talking about a wood fireplace?

In Wisconsin when we install a fireplace the dealer pays a "use tax" and there is no sales tax to the customer. It is an improvement to their home.

There is no government tax credit for gas fireplaces.

Yes he is talking about a gas fireplace.

[JW8]

Yeah there is no rebate for gas fireplaces

I thought ALL capitol improvements were tax exempt

[JW8]

there are certain stipulations to the type and nature of the improvement...i will try to find a link
