CARES Act 2020 – Install a New System and Save with a Tax Deduction

The CARES (Coronavirus Act, Relief and Economic Security) Act allows companies to take a tax deduction* year one when they install and put a qualifying life safety system in service.

In the past, the depreciation had to be taken over a thirty-nine (39) year period. Taking the tax benefit now can reduce your overall cost of equipment and installation. 

BENEFITS OF CARES ACT

Benefit 1: Take 100% depreciation year 1 for full equipment & installation cost
Benefit 2: There is no cap to the cost of the equipment and labor
Benefit 3: Deduction can be taken all the way back to the beginning of 2018

SYSTEMS THAT QUALIFY

  • Sprinkler Systems
  • Fire Alarm Systems
  • Special Hazards/ Clean Agent Systems
