Older fireplaces and wood stoves can cost more to run and release far more smoke than modern heating systems. Visalia homeowners now have an opportunity to replace those older units at a much lower cost. Buck Stove & Spa has teamed up with the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District to help residents access rebates through the Fireplace & Woodstove Change-Out Program.
The result is a more efficient home, lower heating costs, and cleaner air for the entire community.
Program Overview
The Change-Out Program offers financial assistance for replacing high-polluting wood-burning devices. Approved applicants may receive between $1,000 and $5,000 toward eligible upgrades such as pellet stoves, gas fireplace inserts, or electric heat pump systems.
If your home has an open-hearth fireplace or an older wood stove, this program may help cover a large portion of the upgrade cost.
