The Massachusetts Clean Energy Center (MassCEC), the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection, and the Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources are currently offering rebates through the Commonwealth Woodstove Change-Out Program. This program assists eligible Massachusetts residents with the cost of replacing non-EPA certified wood-fired stoves with EPA-certified, low-emission woodstoves, pellet stoves, and fireplace inserts. Old stoves must be permanently removed from service and rendered inoperable. The stove professional is charged with the coordination of stove disposal and recycling and installing the new stove.
Low-income residents earning less than 80% of the state median income are eligible for rebates ranging from $1,500 to $3,000, and standard residential customers who qualify for the program are eligible for rebates ranging from $500 to $1,750. Rebates will be available until program funding has been exhausted. $1.8 million of funds have been approved to support this program now, through 2019.
Applications must be submitted by the stove professional completing the installation. See the program website and program manual for details and the complete application package.
