This mean you pay exactly 0% of the sales tax on the systems you purchase. Its like getting 10% off the system. The exemption includes equipment related to eligible systems, and sales of services relating to the installation of eligible systems. The exemption has no expiration date. Tax form (CERT-140) is available on the Connecticut Department of Revenue Services website.
