With the modifications to the maneuver approved at this time by the House Budget Committee comes a double water bonus. The first corrective voted by the parliamentarians foresees, in the estimate of the Ministry of Environment, the “Fund for the saving of water resources” with an endowment of 20 million euros for 2021. In essence, the new endowment will be used to finance a whole series of interventions recognizing a bonus of one thousand euros for each beneficiary to be used until December 31 of next year.
The expenses covered by the water voucher
The voucher will be used to support ceramic sanitary vessel replacement interventions with new existing faucets, shower heads and shower columns with new water flow limiting devices, in existing buildings, parts of existing buildings or individual dwelling units. Eligible costs for the contribution are those incurred by the following plugs: supply and installation of ceramic toilets with a maximum discharge volume equal to or less than 6 liters and related drainage systems, including connected plumbing and masonry works and dismantling and dismantling of systems pre-existing; the supply and installation of taps and taps for bathrooms and kitchens, including devices to control the flow of water with a flow rate equal to or less than 6 liters per minute and sprinklers and shower columns with a water flow rate equal to or less than 9 liters per minute, including connected plumbing and masonry work and dismantling of pre-existing systems.

Criteria and application methods established by the Environmental Decree
The law, approved by the Commission, then specifies that the water bond does not constitute the taxable income of the beneficiary and, therefore, is not relevant for ISEE purposes. The definition of the methods and deadlines for the disbursement of the bond, also with respect to the spending limit, will be entrusted to a decree of the Ministry of the Environment which must be issued within 60 days following the entry into force of the provision.
Tax Credit for Drinking Water Filtration Systems
Among the approved amendments, then, there is also a tax credit for the purchase of drinking water filtration systems. This is a subsidy of up to 50% of the costs incurred for the purchase and installation of filtering, mineralization, cooling and addition of dietary carbon dioxide E 290 systems, for the improvement of water intended for human consumption supplied by aqueducts, that will be recognized from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2022. The amount of the bonus may not exceed one thousand euros for individuals who do not carry out economic activities, while for other subjects (arts and professions, entities non-commercial, including those of the Third sector and civilly recognized religious bodies) the bar will be up to 5,000 euros, for each building intended for commercial or institutional activity. To cover the new tax credit, 5 million have been allocated for 2021 and the same for 2022. It will be available to the Tax Agency, which will be adopted within 30 days after the entry into force of the decree, to establish criteria and methods of application of the new measure.
