- Currently, labor for installing insulation materials is taxed at 9% VAT, while labor for replacing window frames is taxed at 21%, creating practical and sustainability issues.
- An integrated approach to insulation, replacing both glass and frames simultaneously, is more effective for energy efficiency and sustainability.
- The current VAT system complicates combined insulation work, leading to administrative burdens and uncertainty.
- A unified VAT rate for both insulation glass and frame replacement would simplify processes and encourage sustainable renovations.
- Adjusting the VAT policy would support energy-efficient homes and create a simpler, more practical tax system.
