Cool Roof Rebate Act of 2025

HR 2679, the Cool Roof Rebate Act of 2025, creates a federal program providing rebates to low-income households for installing highly reflective roofing products that reduce home cooling costs. Eligible households must have incomes below 200% of their ZIP code’s median income and reside in areas ranked in the top 25% for heat vulnerability by the CDC. Rebates range from $0.25 to $0.75 per square foot, depending on roof type (low-sloped or steep-sloped) and the product’s ability to reflect sunlight and emit heat, as measured by standardized testing. The program runs from 2026 through 2030 with $25 million annually allocated for rebates, requiring participants to report on roof types and products used.
