The new Tacoma-Pierce County Wood Stove Program began on November 19, 2012.
Why have a Wood Smoke Reduction Program?

Program Update

Wood Stove Program is underway.

Next drawing for free or discounted new heating replacements held Feb. 22 (sign up by Feb. 20).
Air quality in most of Tacoma and much of Pierce County does not meet federal standards for healthy air. Fine particle pollution (soot) in this area is highest during colder fall and winter months, when many households rely on the use of wood-burning devices for home heating.
The smoke from burning wood poses a risk to everyone. Children, older adults and people with heart disease, asthma and other lung diseases are the most at risk.
To address this problem, new regulations require all uncertified wood-burning devices in the Tacoma-Pierce CountySmoke Reduction Zone to be removed or rendered inoperable by September 30, 2015. Our Wood Stove Program can help you get ahead of these new rules.

Move on to cleaner heat

To improve air quality and protect public health, residents in the Tacoma-Pierce County Smoke Reduction Zone can receive rewards from the Clean Air Agency to either recycle an old wood stove or, in some cases, replace it with cleaner heat.
The program offers two ways to participate:
  1. Recycling Buy-Back” Receive up to $350 for the removal and recycling of eligible wood-burning devices.
    • Bring your old, but working, wood stove or fireplace insert to a recycling event and receive a $350 reward.
    • Schedule us to come and get your working wood stove or fireplace insert and receive a $200 reward.
  2. Replacement Drawing” Enter a random drawing to ‘win’ discounts towards a clean heating replacement for your installed, old wood burning device. Discount values of $1,000, $1,500 or full-cost* of the replacement will be awarded. The next drawing will be held in February 22. Enroll by Feb. 20 to be entered.
Recycling rewards CAN be used for a new certified wood stove or insert, or for anything (a bill, savings, etc.). Replacing your old stove is not required unless you want to.
Replacement options include electric ductless heat pumps, whole-house electric heat pumps, or gas furnaces; or pellet, natural gas or propane stoves or inserts. WA-approved, EPA certified wood stoves or inserts are only allowed for income-qualified households and grand prize winners pulled in the November or February drawing.
