  • Page 8: The Benefits Of Installing A Blower

    THE BENEFITS OF INSTALLING A BLOWER A blower can be installed at the back of your DROLET stove. This option is necessary if you wish to redistribute into a room the heat trapped at the back of your stove. By forcing hot air toward the front, the blower enables you to extend the radiation power of your stove.

  • Page 10: Floor Protector

    FLOOR PROTECTOR Your wood stove should be placed on a non-combustible surface. The floor protector should be under the stove, eighteen inches beyond the front and eight inches beyond each side of the fuel loading and ash removal opening. If there is a horizontal section of chimney connector, the floor protector should go under it and two inches beyond each side.
  • Page 11: Clearances From Combustibles

    CLEARANCES FROM COMBUSTIBLES It is of outmost importance that the clearances to combustible materials be scrupulously respected upon installation of the stove you have selected. Refer to the tables below : Model Eldorado 15/6 Adirondack 15/5 Savannah 15/6 Celtic 15/5...
  • Page 12: Reduced Clearances

    REDUCED CLEARANCES You may decrease the clearances by installing heat radiation shields between the walls or the ceiling and the stove. These heat radiation shields must be installed permanently, and can include sheet metal, a rigid non-combustible sheet or a masonry wall. Clearances of not less than 1"...
  • Page 13: Chimney

    CHIMNEY Your wood stove may be hooked up with a factory built or masonry chimney. If you are using a factory built chimney, it must comply with UL 103 or ULC S629 standards; therefore it must be a Type HT (2100°F). It is extremely important that it be installed according to the manufacturer's specifications.
  • Page 14: Chimney Connector (Stove Pipe)

    CHIMNEY CONNECTOR (STOVE PIPE) Your chimney connector and chimney must have the same diameter as the stove outlet. If this is not the case, we recommend you contact your dealer in order to insure there will be no problem with the draught. The stove pipe must be made of aluminized or cold roll steel with a minimum thickness of 0.021"...

  • Page 19: Outside Combustion Air

    OUTSIDE COMBUSTION AIR Your DROLET stove is approved to be installed with an outside air intake which is necessary for a mobile home. This type of installation is also required in air tight houses and houses with negative pressure problems. You can purchase this option through your DROLET dealer.
  • Page 20: Woodstove Utilisation

    WOODSTOVE UTILISATION Your heating unit was designed to burn wood only; no other materials should be burnt. Wastes and other flammable materials should not be burnt in your wood stove. Any type of wood may be used in your stove, but specific varieties have better energy yields than others.
  • Page 21: Testing Your Wood

    Smaller pieces of wood will dry faster. All logs exceeding 6" in diameter should be split. The wood should not be stored directly on the ground. Air should circulate through the cord. A 24" to 48" air space should be left between each row of logs, which should be placed in the sunniest location possible.
  • Page 22: Heating

    If you push on it until it stops the combustion air is reduced to a minimum. Your DROLET stove burnt between .953 kg\h et 3.639 kg\h. of wood during EPA testing. Real operating conditions may give very different results than those obtained in the lab according to the species of wood used, it's moisture content, the size and density of the pieces, the length of the chimney, altitude and outside temperature.
  • Page 23: Reloading

    RELOADING Once you have obtained a good bed of embers, you should reload the unit. In order to do so, open the air controls to maximum a few seconds prior to opening the stove's door. Then proceed by opening the door very slowly; open it one or two inches for 5 to 10 seconds, before opening it completely to increase the draught and thus eliminate the smoke which is stagnant in a state of slow combustion in the stove.
  • Page 24: Ash Disposal

    ASH DISPOSAL Ashes should be removed from the stove every few days or when ashes get to 2 to 3 inches deep. Always empty the stove when it is cold, such as in the morning. Always dispose of ashes in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. Place this container on a non combustible floor or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal.
  • Page 25: Maintenance

    Do not abuse the glass door by striking or slamming shut. Do not use the stove if the glass is broken. • If the glass on your stove breaks, replace only with glazing supplied from the Drolet dealer.
