And, you're right -- there's no help for split systems, etc., and the
credit even if allowed for your new system tends to be nothing close to
the cost differential required to qualify. All in all, it's a minimal
benefit every time I've evaluated it--that is, not nearly big enough to
make it any factor at all in a decision.

You "claim" nothing, unless there is a heat pump somewhere in the works
and one that qualifies for the credit. Best reference for you is to
see instructiosn for form 5695.

In 2007, we updated our failing air conditioning system (spit system).
Our home is two levels with two zones. In other words, we have two
independent units, one for down stairs and one for upstairs. Do I claim
each individually or combined? I am up against the maximum allowed which
seems not to credit me for the second unit.

Thanks for your help.
