I add new energy efficient window 2018 will I get credit for this

You may possibly qualify for the Nonbusiness Energy Property Credit. It is for existing main homes. It applies to building envelope components such as doors, windows, insulation, and heat resistant roofs, and heating, air conditioning, stoves, and water heaters.

 

Credit amount. The total combined credit limit is $500 for all years after 2005.

 

Subsidized energy financing. Expenditures made from financing provided under a federal, state, or local program, the principal purpose of which is to provide subsidized financing for projects designed to conserve or produce energy, cannot be used to calculate the credit. 

 

To generate Home Energy Credits (Form 5695) on your tax return.

  • Click on Federal Taxes (In TurboTax Home and Business)
  • Click on Deductions and Credits 
  • Click on I'll choose what I work on (if shown)
  • Under Your Home
  • On Home Energy Credits click on the start or update button
