Tips & Trivia
  • If all U.S. households replaced four incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescents, we would reduce as much pollution as if we took 3.5 million cars off the roads! More bright ideas.

Program documents required for reimbursement

In order to secure funds, a Proof of Work Order must be submitted to the Clean Air Agency, either online or via fax, when the customer orders the new heating device. The retailer/contractor will receive an e-mail back from an agency representative confirming the availability or depletion of program funds so you know whether to continue with the completion of sale and installation.

In order for a retailer or contractor to be reimbursed for a redeemed coupon, after the installation is completed you must submit a signed Certificate of Destruction form ensuring the old wood stove or insert was rendered inoperable and will be surrendered to a recycler to be used only as scrap. Additionally, a Recycling Report is due within 30 days of submitting the Certificate of Destruction, to verify the old device has been properly scrapped.

We recommend you print out and follow the steps on the Retailer Checklist to ensure proper documentation for reimbursement.

These forms are included in the packet sent to participating retailers/contractors. You may download additional copies here.

  • Proof of Work Order -- We encourage you to use the online form when a customer selects a device and redeems their coupon. You will receive an e-mail confirming the availability or depletion of funds. If you do not have online access, you may use the printed form (PDF 0.08MB), then fax to 206.343.7522, attention Amy Warren or e-mail to AmyW@pscleanair.org.
  • Certificate of Destruction (PDF 0.08MB) -- An original is required to be completed and submitted to a Clean Air Agency representative in order for retailer/contractor to be reimbursed.
  • Recycling Report (PDF 0.08MB) -- It is required to be completed and submitted to a Clean Air Agency representative within 30 days of submitting the Certificate of Destruction, to verify the old device has been properly scrapped.
  • Assignment of Funds is an optional agreement between the customer and the heating contractor. Form and required documents must be submitted to Kathy Ross at the Tacoma-Pierce County Health Department. Reimbursement comes from the City of Tacoma or Pierce County, not the Puget Sound Clean Air Agency.

Faxed documents can be sent to 206.343.7522, attention: Amy Warren. E-mail should be sent to AmyW@pscleanair.org. Mail originals to 1904 Third Avenue, Suite 105; Seattle, WA 98101, Attention: Amy Warren.
