Wood stove permits in Spanish Fork.
Spanish Fork’s Building Division issues the permit.
Inside city limits, Spanish Fork City’s Building Division takes permit applications online through CitizenServe and schedules inspections, which must be booked at least 24 hours ahead. Its permit page says most major mechanical work and HVAC equipment need a permit, but does not name wood stoves or inserts, and asks residents unsure which permit applies to call 801-804-4540. City Code 14.04.010 adopts the State Construction Code and requires contractors on permitted work to be licensed by the state. Ask which permit type fits a stove or insert, what it wants for the listing, clearances, hearth and liner, and confirm the model is EPA certified.
Spanish Fork City: Building Permits & InspectionsRead this first: no burning on mandatory no-burn days.
Utah Admin. Code R307-302 covers all regions of Utah County, Spanish Fork included. When Utah’s Division of Air Quality declares a mandatory no-burn period, no one may use a wood stove or fireplace unless it is the only heat for the whole home and registered with DAQ. The rule has no exemption for a power outage or failed furnace. Provo’s separate carbon-monoxide trigger does not reach Spanish Fork. On voluntary action days DAQ asks residents not to burn; we found no Utah County rule that makes those days a ban.
Utah Admin. Code R307-302, Solid Fuel Burning DevicesBuying a stove? It must be EPA certified.
R307-302-6 says no one may sell, offer, supply, install or transfer a wood stove that is not EPA certified anywhere in Utah County. An uncertified stove installed before March 6, 2014 may stay with a house when it is sold if it is not moved. The rule also allows only seasoned wood and bars burning trash, plastics and treated wood.
Utah Admin. Code R307-302, Solid Fuel Burning DevicesMandatory days carry fines.
Utah’s Division of Air Quality says no fireplaces, wood stoves, pellet stoves or coal stoves, including EPA-certified units, may burn during a mandatory action period unless registered as the home’s sole source of heat. It says compliance officers use infrared cameras to spot heat plumes and assess fines of up to $150 per household. Its page links the sole-source registration form.
Utah DEQ: Mandatory No Burn DaysWildland interface code adopted in 2025.
Spanish Fork adopted the Utah Wildland Urban Interface Code in Title 14, Chapter 40, by ordinance on November 4, 2025, and says the city will map its wildland urban interface areas. Building in violation of it is a Class C misdemeanor. If your home sits near the east bench or canyon, ask the Building Division whether it is mapped and whether that changes chimney or roof work.

What to ask a Spanish Fork installer.

- Is this stove EPA certified under R307-302, and will you give me the certification paperwork for my records?
- Is my address in Spanish Fork’s wildland urban interface area, and does that change the chimney cap or roof work?

Spanish Fork wood stove installation FAQs.
Can I use a wood stove in Spanish Fork during a power outage?
Only when DAQ has not declared a mandatory no-burn period, or if your home is registered as a sole source of heat. R307-302 covers all of Utah County and has no exemption for outages or a failed furnace. DAQ’s Mandatory No Burn Days page links the sole-source application. Check the day’s action level before counting on the stove for backup heat.
Does Provo’s carbon-monoxide no-burn rule apply in Spanish Fork?
No. R307-302-4 says the carbon-monoxide no-burn periods apply only within Provo city limits. Spanish Fork follows the county-wide particulate rules in R307-302-3, so mandatory no-burn periods declared for Utah County apply here. Voluntary action days are a request not to burn; we found no county rule making them a ban.
Does Spanish Fork require a permit for a wood stove?
The city’s permit page says most major mechanical work and HVAC equipment need a permit but does not name wood stoves. Apply through CitizenServe or call the Building Division at 801-804-4540 to confirm the permit type. City code also requires anyone doing permitted work to be licensed by the state, so check your installer’s license.
