C. The person who provides or installs the device shall furnish the taxpayer with an accounting of the cost to the taxpayer.

D. The taxpayer may not cumulate total tax credits under this section exceeding twenty-five thousand dollars with respect to the same building in the same year or fifty thousand dollars in total credits in any year.

E. If the allowable credit exceeds the taxes otherwise due under this title on the claimant's income, or if there are no taxes due under this title, the amount of the claim not used to offset taxes under this title may be carried forward for not more than five consecutive taxable years as a credit against subsequent years' income tax liability.

F.

The total of the credits allowed all such owners may not exceed the amount that would have been allowed a sole owner.
