Rental claims

I rent out a room in my house and needed to replace the broken furnace in 2022. I have not claimed my house as a business expense. Can I claim the cost of the furnace as CCA or is that just considered an 'improvement' to the house? The fact that the furnace is class 1 is what has me concerned. Thanks.

Filing

I would recommend contacting the CRA and getting their opinion.
