If you have a wood-burning stove before 1998, you can receive support up to NOK 5000
Are you a resident of Drammen and want to replace your pre-1998 wood-burning stove? Now you can receive support of up to NOK 5000. This is a subsidy for conversion to a clean combustion * stove, heat pump or pellet stove, for example. You can also receive a subsidy to close an open fireplace along with the installation of a new fireplace insert. You can get support to retrofit an afterburner in a historic stove, instead of replacing it. Unfortunately, the new installation of a fireplace that was not previously connected to the chimney is not covered by this subsidy.
Drammen allocated a total of CZK 1 million for this purpose in 2021. Subsidy for the replacement of one furnace for an apartment, one furnace for an apartment
The municipality of Drammen allocated a total of one million crowns for this purpose in 2021. Subsidies are awarded by the commune until the amount is exhausted. Therefore, the submitted application does not constitute a guarantee for subsidies. You can apply for a subsidy to replace one stove per apartment and receive a subsidy of up to NOK 5000 per apartment. This support is only granted for expenses incurred after January 1, 2019.
You must be the owner of the home to apply. Tenants in condominiums can also apply for support. A clean combustion fireplace has several advantages, but one of the most important is that it reduces the amount of airborne dust that comes out of the chimney. When replacing an old wood stove with a new one, PM emissions are reduced by around 15 kg per fireplace per year.
An older wood stove can only use 40-50% of this energy stored in the wood
A clean combustion kiln is also more efficient. Such a stove allows you to get more heat from each log, up to 80% of the energy stored in the wood. This is more energy used for heating. In the same situation, an older wood stove may only use 40-50% of this energy.
* Clean combustion in a low-emission furnace. This means that the fireplace has a dual primary and secondary combustion system. It has an additional CB system, which causes complete and complete combustion of gases. The wood in such a furnace is used in an optimal way, and in addition, the emission of pollutants is kept at an extremely low level.
