The credit is 30% of the total costs up to a maximum of $600. Include the costs for labor, assembly, preparation, or installation.

Somehow, Turbotax left the word "furnace" out of the program.  Furnaces go in the same place as water boilers (for home heating, not hot water heaters for drinking water.)

Good Lord Maya!   How difficult can it be for the software folks to add a few extra words to that line for "Water Boilers"?

We've had tons of folks trying to find their "Furnace" entry since January. ...even when they are already in the correct Home Energy Credit interview.

This is ridiculous.  BAHHHH !
