The Massachusetts Woodstove Change-Out program offers rebates to assist Massachusetts residents in replacing non-EPA-certified wood stoves with cleaner, more efficient EPA-certified wood or pellet stoves.
Who is Eligible?
Homeowners are eligible for the standard rebate if:
- Their old wood burning stove is currently operational, non-EPA certified, and located in a residential home.
- The stove they plan to purchase is EPA-certified and meets Commonwealth Woodstove Change-Out Program emissions requirements for new stoves.
Homeowners are eligible for a low-income rebate if:
- They meet all requirements for the standard rebate and their annual household income falls below 80% of the Massachusetts state median income level.
Homeowners are not eligible for the program if:
- They are not replacing an existing operational woodstove or fireplace insert.
- Their existing woodstove or fireplace insert is EPA-certified. Only non-EPA certified stoves are eligible for replacement under the Commonwealth Woodstove Change-Out Program.
- They wish to replace an existing pellet stove. Existing pellet stoves are not eligible for replacement under the Commonwealth Woodstove Change-Out Program.
Homeowners who are not eligible to participate in the Commonwealth Woodstove Change-Out Program may be eligible for rebates for other clean heating and cooling technologies.
