I claimed a federal credit when I installed mine a few years ago. I don't remember the amount it was back when I did it, but I just saved my receipt for the cost of the stove and parts and added it when I got to the part in TurboTax where it asked about those credits.

Yes, I should have mentioned that. I claimed just claimed what I spent on the stove and supplies to install it, no labor or anything since I did it myself.
