You can use pellet stoves, EPA-certified wood stoves and natural gas or propane fireplaces.
No visible smoke is allowed from any solid fuel burning devices, beyond a 20 minute start-up period.
Stage II. During a Stage II burn ban:
No burning is allowed in any fireplace, pellet stove or wood stove (certified or not), unless it is your only adequate source of heat.
You can use natural gas or propane fireplaces.
No visible smoke is allowed from any solid fuel burning device at any time.
All outdoor burning is prohibited during a burn ban, even in areas where otherwise permitted by law.
