Air Quality - Wood Burning

All new wood-burning stoves and fireplaces installed in Jefferson County must meet stringent EPA emission standards.

During high pollution days (red days), no wood-burning is allowed below 7,000 feet elevation except by using EPA Phase III stoves, approved pellet stoves or approved masonry heaters.
