Commonwealth Woodstove Change-Out Program

NOTE: This program is no longer running for the 2019 season. Please check on the MassCEC website to see if the program will run for the 2020 season.

The program typically runs from late March to early September. 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 $2,000 to $3,250, and standard residential customers who qualify for the program are eligible for rebates ranging from $500 to $1,750.
