Quotes and contractor pricing

Any cost figure RetrofitROI shows, whether typed in by you or shown as a planning default, is an estimate, not a quote. Actual contractor pricing varies by region, by installer, and by the specific condition of your home. Get an actual quote before making a purchase decision based on price.

Incentives and tax credits

RetrofitROI never assumes a federal, state, or utility incentive on your behalf. If a tool asks for an incentive amount, enter only a confirmed figure from the program's own documentation or a qualified tax professional, not an assumption. Incentive rules and expiration dates change; the site's own citations are reviewed regularly but you should confirm current eligibility directly with the program before relying on it.

Utility rates and rate plans

Electricity and gas rate figures shown as planning defaults are broad reference points, not your actual bill. Your utility's current tariff, which you can find on your own bill or your utility's website, always governs over any default shown here.

Sizing and code compliance

RetrofitROI does not perform sizing, ampacity, load-calculation, or code-compliance math, and no result should be treated as satisfying an electrical, mechanical, or building code requirement. Installation-grade sizing decisions belong with a licensed contractor or installer, who can evaluate your home's actual conditions directly.

Financial, tax, and professional advice

Results on RetrofitROI are not personalized financial, tax, legal, or engineering advice. Where a purchase decision has meaningful tax, financing, or safety consequences, a licensed professional in that area should be part of the decision, not a substitute for one, but not replaced by this site either.
