We had to put a new unit in this summer, and are fixing to go tankless b/c our water heater is going out, and both will bring us a credit for next tax season. Ask your tax prof. or look online at irs.gov if you're interested. :) Wendy --- "Rosenfeldt, Diane" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > LOL, this weekend I went out and got 2 room air > conditioners at Best Buy > for $100 each.
