you get a credit not a deduction  form 5695.

Qualified energy efficiency improvements. Qualified energy
efficiency improvements are the following building envelope
components installed on or in your main home that you owned
during 2019 located in the United States if the original use of the
component begins with you, the component can be expected to
remain in use at least 5 years, and the component meets certain
energy standards.
• Any insulation material or system that is specifically and
primarily designed to reduce heat loss or gain of a home when
installed in or on such a home.
• Exterior windows and skylights.
• Exterior doors.
• Any metal roof with appropriate pigmented coatings or asphalt
roof with appropriate cooling granules that are specifically and
primarily designed to reduce the heat gain of your home.
For purposes of figuring the credit, don't include amounts
paid for the onsite preparation, assembly, or original installation
of the building envelope component.
To qualify for the credit, qualified energy efficiency
improvements must meet certain energy efficiency
requirements. See Lines 19d of form
