As of July 1, 2015, Energy Trust offers an incentive for high-efficiency direct-vent gas fireplaces with intermittent pilot ignition. This incentive is only available for multifamily properties with side-by-side attached dwelling units; stacked dwelling units are not eligible.

The new fireplace must be 70 percent fireplace efficiency, FE, or greater with intermittent pilot ignition. Fireplace efficiency is a measure of a fireplace’s energy efficiency performance over an entire heating season and is expressed as a percentage. The higher the rating, the more efficient the unit. See our list of qualifying models to find high-efficiency fireplaces that meet Energy Trust standards.

A $350 incentive is offered for fireplaces with an FE rating of 75 percent or greater, and a $250 incentive is available for fireplaces with an FE rating of 70-74.9 percent.
