For these purposes, the following investments are understood to improve the quality and sustainability of housing:

  2. Improvements to supply facilities and the installation of mechanisms that promote water savings, as well as the implementation of separate sanitation networks in the building and other systems that promote the reuse of grey water and rainwater in the same building or on the plot or that reduce the volume of discharge into the public sewerage system.

Deduction base

The basis for the deduction for investments in housing will correspond to the amount actually paid by the taxpayer, with a maximum limit of 10,000 euros per tax period.

General requirements

  1. In order to apply the deduction, the energy efficiency rating of the habitual residence must be improved by at least one level.
