Boiler bonus 2024, how it works, how much and who is entitled to it
Boiler bonus "2024", the incentive remains active also for this year and allows you to replace the old boiler with a new generation one.
In addition to the benefit that allows you to have a big discount on the purchase and installation of the boiler, it must be considered that the replacement will also lead to huge savings on consumption.
Going to replace the boiler in 2024 could be a very wise choice, especially given the fact that the incentives currently in force will certainly remain active until 31 December 2024.
To have them also in 2025, however, a legislative intervention is necessary which will you extend.
Why could replacing the old boiler be a targeted solution? One must think that the most obsolete boilers will be removed from the market precisely in view of the so-called "green pact" of the Green Deal, and preparing for a future that requires a greener home could be the best choice.
Gas boilers are now on their last legs and the transition to domestic systems with renewable energy sources is expected by 2040, but from 2025 autonomous boilers will no longer be covered by benefits and concessions.
In 2024 many benefits are still active, although for those who had the hope of being able to change the boiler at zero cost by taking advantage of bonuses and benefits, we immediately anticipate that it is no longer possible due to the substantial changes undergone by the superbonus which went from 110% to 70% also do not express the requirements for access.
The legislation, however, provides for numerous other bonuses and concessions, which are still in force and which allow you to change the boiler while saving considerable sums.
The boiler bonus is a benefit that changes based on the type of work carried out.
What does it mean? That if it is a renovation project, the deduction is equal to 50%, if it is about energy saving the deduction rises to 65%.
What should be remembered, in fact.
is that upstream of a boiler replacement there is already a fundamental saving which is due to the fact that the new generation condensing boilers, also exploiting the heat of the combustion fumes, perform much more than traditional ones, allowing cut your bill by up to 30%.
In order to take advantage of the boiler bonus, it is necessary to pay via "talking" bank transfer or through electronic money, and therefore traceable.

We remind you that the tax relief is also granted if, in addition to the boiler, you purchase the latest generation thermostatic valves to connect to your radiators.
The boiler bonus is part of several existing building bonuses.
It should also be noted that the deduction for the replacement of the boiler can also be included in the 2024 furniture bonus, but in this case you are entitled to a deduction equal to 50% of the cost incurred up to the maximum limit of 5,000 (which is the limit amount to which the furniture bonus passes in 2024), but of the cost of installation.
50% bonus for condensing boilers For the replacement of the air conditioning system with systems equipped with condensing boilers with an energy class of A or higher, a tax deduction equal to 50% of the amount is recognized within the limit of 30,000 euros of expense.

When the boiler bonus is due: all the requirements As regards the new condensing boiler, the following requirements must be met in order to benefit from the tax deduction: the intervention must be considered as a total or partial replacement of the old heat generator and not as a new one installation; the new condensing heat generator can be air- or water-based.
Furthermore, in the case of a system with a nominal heat output of less than 100 kW: the heat generator must have a useful thermal efficiency, at a load equal to 100% of the nominal useful thermal power, greater than or equal to 93 + 2logPn; where technically compatible, thermostatic valves with low thermal inertia must be installed on all heating elements.
If it is technically impossible to install these devices, it is necessary to use others with the same characteristics (i.e.
of the modulating type acting on the flow rate).
Winter air conditioning systems designed and built with average temperatures of the heat transfer fluid lower than 45°C are an exception; verification and fine-tuning of the distribution system.
Instead, in the case of systems with a nominal firebox power greater than or equal to 100kW, in addition to the previous requirements: a modulating burner must be adopted; the climate regulation must act directly on the burner; an electronic pump with variable speed must be installed.
