Can an in home daycare take the energy credit for new windows?

My friend hired someone to do her taxes but he is not doing them very well. Didn't ask her about her itemized deductions, etc. Ok, so now on to the new windows. Used the sales tax from the invoice to deduct on the worksheet for the general sales tax. Big uncertainty here is this: Can she take the energy credit for the windows on her home even though she uses that same home as an in home daycare?

  1. Her home is a daycare? I'm unsure of how that would work. There would be several other questions I'd have to ask to determine the status of her home and/or business.

  2. The installation of the windows and the use of the home in a daycare are two completely different things.

    She can take the energy credit for the windows in they were installed in 2007 and she hasn't used up the credit in 2006.
