Puget Sound Clean Air Agency

Burn smart, burn clean, save money!

Did you know that smoke coming out of your chimney means you are wasting your fire wood?  That’s because smoke is unburned fuel, which means you’re likely to end up buying or chopping more wood, stacking more wood, and making more trips to the wood pile to fuel-up your stove or fireplace.

And it can be downright unneighborly – and against the law – to fill your neighborhood with smoke because it can cause poor air quality, impact people’s health, and lead to or worsen a burn ban.

Learn how to get more heat from your wood, save money AND help protect our air quality.
