HVAC Tax Credit

WarDee25 — Sun, 01 Mar 2026 17:33:19 GMT

We purchased a heat pump in 2025, and the questions in Turbo Tax about this are very confusing. They ask for the "most expensive heat pump," which seems strange and easy to get incorrect (as prices change regularly), and then they ask for the "cost of all other heat pumps," which seems bizarre. Are we supposed to research every model on earth and average them all together? Call us crazy, but we thought Turbo Tax would actually ask how much *we* paid for *ours,* but that question is nowhere to be found. How do we proceed?

You only enter the cost of the heat pump that was installed. If you only installed one then that would be the most expensive. The rest you leave blank.

Thanks for the answer to this question! I agree that the questions re the HVAC credit that are in the TurboTax Desktop app are stupid and confusing. They make no sense. TurboTax, you need to fix this. Like, NOW!
