🔥 UP TO $5,000 TO UPGRADE YOUR FIREPLACE!

The Valley Air District is offering financial incentives of up to $5,000 to help eligible homeowners replace older wood-burning fireplaces and stoves with cleaner, more efficient heating options.

🏡 Considering an upgrade? Start with an inspection.

Before purchasing a fireplace insert or replacement system, it’s important to know what your existing fireplace and chimney can safely accommodate.

An NFPA 211 Level II Inspection can help identify potential installation limitations and prevent costly surprises.

📞 Call or text Kern County Chimney Sweeping at (661) 218-7776 to book your inspection.

🌐 www.KernCountyChimney.com

Learn about eligibility and available incentives:

Incentive amounts and eligibility vary. Program approval is determined by the Valley Air District.

🎙️ Fireplace Safety, Homeownership & More!

I recently had the pleasure of sitting down with my friend Angel Przybylski, Bakersfield Realtor, for an interview on her Living In Bakersfield YouTube channel!

We had a great conversation about fireplace safety, chimney inspections, fireplace inserts, dryer vent maintenance, and what homeowners should know when buying or selling a home.

Head over to Angel’s YouTube channel to watch our interview! Be sure to give the video a like and subscribe to her channel for more great local content.

A big thank-you to Angel for having me on!
