PSCAA may issue an air quality burn ban when pollution levels rise, and the air quality reaches UNHEALTHY levels. If you use a wood stove to heat your home, pay close attention to air quality updates and prepare for when a burn ban is called. www.pscleanair.gov/m/faq?cat=19

Thinking about holding onto an old uncertified wood stove? Uncertified stoves burn less efficiently, create more smoke, and you can't even use it when there is a burn ban. Moreover, uncertified stoves can’t be sold, given away, or installed. www.pscleanair.gov/170/Legal-Ov...

Drier and cooler this weekend means some MODERATE air quality mostly from wood smoke from home heating. More chances of rain and mostly GOOD air quality well into next week. For the latest air quality burn ban update, visit pscleanair.gov/burnban.

Seeing too much smoke from your chimney? That’s a sign you’re not getting the most heat from your wood—and it could be costing while worsening air quality. Excess smoke often comes from burning wet or green wood, and you might even get a fine for it. www.pscleanair.gov/325/Cleaner-...

Sunny weather with moderate winds will keep air quality GOOD. Starting Sunday, we will begin to see lower temperatures and lighter winds, which could lead to some wood smoke build-up and air quality may reach MODERATE at times in wood-burning areas. pscleanair.gov/burnban.

Your neighbors might be unaware that their wood stove is producing excessive smoke or that there are regulations around outdoor burning. In general, neighbor-to-neighbor talks are a helpful way to assist them into changing their behavior. www.pscleanair.gov/262/File-a-C...

Burning debris in your yard or inside your wood stove sounds like an easy way to clean up. However, the smoke is highly unhealthy and could even result in an unwanted fine. Consider chipping it, composting it, or dropping off your debris to a recycling center. www.pscleanair.gov/353/Outdoor-...

If a wood-burning device is the only way to adequately heat your home, you may apply for a No Other Adequate Source of Heat exemption. The application must be approved before using your wood-burning device. www.pscleanair.gov/171/No-Other...
