Final Decision (indecision!) between Jotul F55, Hearthstone Shelburne or Manchester, and Woodstock Ideal Steel

Also are you certain the flue is covered under the tax credit? I installed a new flue this year for my hearthstone which is a tax credit stove, but I purchased the stove in 2020...

would I be able to get anything back for the chimney?

Speak to your accountant. I suspect not. The credit is on the entire installation, including flue system, but not for a retrofit afaik.

I understood that it had to be for a complete installation; the credit is associated with *the stove* - and associated stuff (flue), it is not for *the flue*.

If a flue a year later is valid, where is the the limit? 2 years, 5 after the stove?

Hence I think you are out of luck.

One of the small stoves from Morso, Jotul, or VC.

I believe it is only covered if the work is done at the same time as the purchase of a new EPA stove. I'm not 100% sure though.

Woodstock has a good summary re EPA credit if that's useful?
