Bill Offers Incentives for Indoor Air Quality Improvements

A new bill in Congress compliments the Biden administration’s push for IAQ improvements by offering tax credits for indoor air quality assessments and air-filtration and HVAC system upgrades in many non-residential buildings.

Industry advocates at two trade organizations are calling the proposal well-intentioned but flawed.

House Resolution 7671, dubbed the Airborne Act, is sponsored by Rep. Don Beyer, D-Virginia. It would offer the owner of a commercial building a $1-per-square-foot federal tax credit for a qualifying IAQ assessment, a $5-per-square-foot credit for an air-filtration upgrade that brings a system into compliance with the ASHRAE standard 62.1 and MERV 13 filtration, and a $50-a-square-foot credit for an HVAC upgrade that also brings a system in line with ASHRAE 62.1 and MERV 13 filtration.
