families and businesses will be able to save on their purchase of certain water- and energy-efficient products this May.
Texas’s Water-Efficient Products and ENERGY STAR® sales tax holidays both take place Saturday, May 27, through Monday, May 29. Comptroller Glenn Hegar's office estimates shoppers will save $14.3 million in state and local sales tax. Products displaying a WaterSense® label or logo can be purchased tax-free for personal or business use, including showerheads, bathroom sink faucets and accessories, toilets, urinals and landscape irrigation controls.
The sales tax holiday also applies to lawn and garden products that help conserve water outdoors. Items qualifying for the exemption include soaker or drip-irrigation hoses; moisture controls for sprinkler or irrigation systems; mulch; and plants, trees and grasses. However, these items can be purchased tax-free for residential use only.
