I had tints installed on all of my exterior windows in 2017. Can I claim it anywhere on my taxes?

Actually according to the IRS, " The Bipartisan Budget Act (the Act), P.L. 115-123, enacted February 9, 2018, extended the date for many benefits in the tax law (extenders) and added a few new ones," so you may be able to. The instructions for IRS Form 5695 allow for a Residential Energy Efficient Property Credit for " 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," which would include window tints. But only the cost of the tinting material could be used, not the installation.
Unfortunately, for tax year 2017, there are no federal tax credits related to installation of tint on your home windows.
