Section 179: 2025 Year-End Savings

Section 179 may allow businesses to expense qualifying equipment placed in service during tax year 2025, up to annual IRS limits, rather than depreciating over time. When paired with financing, many firms target a net-out-of-pocket approach: capture deductions this year while spreading payments over the term.
Note: Exact limits and eligibility are set by the IRS and may change; always confirm with your tax advisor.

Section 179 Quick Tips

  • Place equipment in service by Dec 31, 2025 to take the deduction for 2025.

  • Keep invoices, finance agreements, and placed-in-service documentation.

  • Labs and funeral homes often combine refrigeration, lifts, tables, and safety gear into one deduction plan.

Embalming Lab Setup Guide

Designing a compliant, teachable embalming environment requires durable equipment, planned workflows, and student-safe ergonomics.

Core Lab Zones

  1. Receiving & Identification — secure intake, privacy partitions, tag and chain-of-custody station.

  2. Refrigeration & Storage — upright or walk-in mortuary coolers sized to your case volume; consider multi-bay or extra-wide roll-ins for stretchers and bariatric readiness.

  3. Prep & Embalming — stainless embalming stations with water control, aspirators, eye wash, sharps, and backflow prevention; adjustable hydraulic lifts for safe transfers.

  4. Restorative Art — dedicated bench space with magnification, pigments, waxes, feature formers, lighting.

  5. Bio-Safety & Waste — PPE lockers, spill kits, red-bag waste path, ventilation and negative pressure where required.

  6. Learning & Observation — line-of-sight for instructors, camera mounts (if allowed), and clear SOP signage.

Specifications that Matter

  • Refrigeration: even airflow, NSF-friendly interiors, thick insulation, and serviceable refrigeration packagesfor uptime.

  • Water & Drainage: vacuum breakers, floor sinks/traps where code requires, sanitary hose reels.

  • Surfaces: 304/316 stainless contact areas; sloped, welded seams for cleanability.

  • Ergonomics: lifts rated for bariatric loads; adjustable table heights; anti-fatigue flooring.

  • Compliance & Safety: eyewash/shower access, GFCI outlets, chemical storage cabinets, SDS binders, and documented cleaning SOPs.

Why Equipment Quality Matters in Education

Professional-grade coolers and lab hardware protect the dignity of the deceased, enhance case readiness, and give students a realistic, compliant environment. Our coolers use heavy-duty framing, balanced airflow, and service-friendly refrigeration for minimal downtime—critical during term deadlines and licensing practicums.

FAQ: Students & New Professionals

Q: Can I finance as a student or brand-new business?
A: Yes—subject to credit approval, we often structure starter packages with low monthly payments and a deferral until equipment is installed. Pair with Section 179 (2025) where eligible.

Q: What cooler size fits a small lab or first prep room?
A: Many programs start with a 2- to 3-body upright (extra-wide options for stretcher clearance). Growth paths include 4-bay uprights or modular walk-ins as case volume increases.

Q: Do you help with drawings and MEP coordination?
A: Absolutely—get submittal drawings, electrical/mechanical schedules, and recommended clearances, plus cleaning and maintenance SOP templates.

Q: What about mobile morgues for surge capacity or teaching?
A: Mobile morgues add seasonal capacity, disaster-readiness, and off-site teaching options with the same temperature integrity as fixed walk-ins.
