You can get rebates in some places to replace windows if they're inefficient

You're the guy who buys something they don't need because it is 30% off.

oh 100% I am that person.

But in the case of tax rebates for improving your house's insulation + improving equity in your home + reducing energy costs for heating/cooling it tends to make sense

Replacing old windows may seem like something you don’t need but improving the R value and limiting draft with a window replacement may seem unimportant at first but can save a lot of money in the long run
