HEATING
Controlled combustion is the most efficient technique for wood heating because it enables
you to select the type of combustion you want for each given situation. The wood will burn
slowly if the wood stove air intake control is adjusted to reduce the oxygen supply in the
combustion chamber to a minimum. On the other hand, wood will burn quickly if the air
control is adjusted to admit a larger quantity of oxygen in the combustion chamber. The
air intake control on your stove is very simple. If you pull on it out completely towards you,
it is fully open. 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.
WARNINGS
• NEVER OVERFIRE YOUR STOVE. IF ANY PART OF THE STOVE STARTS TO GLOW RED, OVER
FIRING IS HAPPENING. READJUST THE AIR INTAKE CONTROL AT A LOWER SETTING.
• THE INSTALLATION OF A LOG CRADLE IS NOT RECOMMENDED IN YOUR DROLET WOOD STOVE.
• NEVER PUT WOOD ABOVE THE FIREBRICK LINING OF THE FIREBOX.
• NEVER PUT WOOD OVER THE LOG RETAINER LOCATED ON THE FRONT LOWER PART OF THE
FIREBOXE (SEE NEXT FIGURE).
