Wood Stove Exchange Program
The 2021 wood stove rebate program runs from January 1st, 2021 to November 30th, 2021.
The Provincial Wood Stove Exchange Program provides rebates to eligible residents who remove a non-EPA certified wood-burning appliance used for home heating and replace it with a cleaner heating option.
The program is funded through the BC Lung Association and qathet Regional District to reduce particulate matter in the atmosphere and improve air quality.
Homeowners can apply through Efficiency BC to access additional rebates outside this program. For those exchanging their wood stove for an air sourced heat pump, some models are eligible through Fortis BC for additional savings. Local retailers may also offer additional in-house incentives.
| New Heating Appliance Type | Rebate Amount |
| Gas, Pellet, or Propane Stove or Insert, Electric Heat Pump | $550 |
| EPA Certified Wood Stove | $400 |
Acceptable air quality is everyone’s right. Protecting air quality is everyone responsibility.
Please direct any questions regarding the program to the Let’s Talk Trash Team at 604-485-2260 extension 308 or info@letstalktrash.ca.
