Homeowners in Cumberland County who own inefficient wood stoves can apply for a voucher worth $1,000 toward a new stove certified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as part of the Cumberland County Wood Stove Changeout Program announced Tuesday by the American Lung Association. The program aims to improve outdoor and indoor air quality by removing older, high-polluting wood stoves and replacing them with cleaner-burning, EPA-certified wood, pellet or gas stoves.
