SALES TAX HOLIDAY MAY 24-26 FOR WATER/ENERGY-EFFICIENT PRODUCTS
Texas shoppers will be able to save on the purchase of water-efficient and energy-efficient products during a state sales tax holiday May 24-26.
During the holiday, products displaying a WaterSense® label or logo or the ENERGY STAR® logo can be purchased tax-free. There is no limit to the number of qualifying items that can be purchased tax-free.
The Texas Comptroller’s Office estimates $15.2 million in state and local sales tax savings during the holiday.
Water-efficient products that will be tax-exempt during the holiday include showerheads, bathroom sink faucets and accessories, toilets, urinals, landscape irrigation controls, and lawn and garden products that help conserve water outdoors.
Energy-efficient products that qualify are air conditioners priced at $6,000 or less, refrigerators costing $2,000 or less, ceiling fans, fluorescent light bulbs, dishwashers, dehumidifiers and clothes washers.
