Depreciation

[joakharbor]

The Tax Account I used for years retired this last year and I am using TurboTax for the first time.  In depreciating new windows that were installed in 2014 on my rental house, my account used a 15-year life depreciation schedule, When I enter the data in Turbo Tax is showing a 5-year depreciation schedule.  How can correct it to match the deprecation schedule I have been using in the past years?  Thanks

Thank You.   Have a Great day.

Windows are considered as part of the building.  That means they are depreciated over 27.5 years.   Both 15 years and 5 years are wrong.
