  • Page 5: Clearances

    1.3 CLEARANCES Clearances to any combustibles when measured directly from the floor protector to the ceiling must be a minimum of 84" (2134 mm). Clearances to any combustibles when measured directly from the front of the stove must be a minimum of 48" (1219 mm). The stove must also be placed so as to maintain the minimum clearances to combustible walls specified for each type of connector used.

  • Page 6: Reduced Clearances

    1.3.1 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"...

The manufacturers’ installation instructions and specified clearances should always be followed in accordance with local and national installation codes. In Canada the CSA B365 and the CSA C22.1 installation codes are to be followed. In the USA the ANSI NFPA 70 and ANSI NFPA 211 installation codes are to be followed.

    insure that it is not obstructed, thus blocking the draft. It should be cleaned when necessary. FIGURE 2.2 Minimum Height of the Chimney 2.2.1 Step by step installation of your factory-built chimney The way to install your chimney may vary from one chimney manufacturer to another. The instructions contained in this manual are based on the recommendations of chimney manufacturers whose products are sold at many North American retailers of wood stoves and related heating accessories.

  • Page 15 1- Start by positioning your stove where you would like it to go, taking into account the minimum clearances to combustible material. You will then be able to determine where the chimney will pass through the wall. You will probably have to adjust the stove position slightly to ensure that your chimney will run between the studs.
  • Page 16 4- Then, from outside the building, slide a short chimney length (attached to the tee) through the wall thimble. The chimney must extend at least 3 inches into the living space where it attaches to the stove pipe. 5- You can now install the wall support. Simply slide the wall support up to the tee, ensuring that the adapter on the support engages with the female coupler on the bottom of the tee.
  • Page 17 6- You can start to add chimney sections. We recommend that you also use locking bands to secure all connections. You will need to secure the chimney to the house using wall bands. Wall bands wrap around the chimney and then attach to the wall. Install the first one 3 feet above the wall support.
  • Page 18 9- You are now ready to connect your chimney to your stove. Simply install the inter-connecting stove pipe between the stove pipe adapter and the stove. You can follow the instructions in the following section (section 2.3) of this manual called « CHIMNEY CONNECTOR». Ceiling support system If your chimney must rise inside the house and go through the ceiling, you need to connect it to your stove at the ceiling level.

  • Page 20 1. Place your stove where you would like it located and use a plumb line to mark the ceiling directly above your stove flue. You will probably have to adjust this position slightly to ensure that your chimney will run between the joists. You can use a stud finder to locate the joists. You also need to take into account the minimum clearances to combustible materials.
  • Page 21 4. Once the support is secure, you can begin to assemble the chimney by lowering the first section into the support. Make sure that the male coupler is pointing upwards, as indicated by the arrow on the chimney label. 5. Then, from beneath the support, insert the stove pipe adapter and twist-lock it into place. 6.
  • Page 22 7. Once you have cut through your roof and framed the joists, it is time to work outdoors. Authorities require that the chimney extend not less than 3 feet above the highest point where it passes through the roof of a building and not less that 2 feet above any portion of the building within 10 feet.
  • Page 23 9. You are now ready to connect your chimney to your stove. Simply install the inter-connecting stove pipe between the stove pipe adapter and the stove. You can follow the instructions in the following section (section 2.3) of this manual called « CHIMNEY CONNECTOR».

  • Page 29: Draft

    2.4 DRAFT Your E.P.A Drolet stove’s performance will be optimised if it is installed with a chimney (flue) system that provides an adequate draft. The draft is the force that moves air from the appliance up through the chimney and is predominantly affected by the height and diameter of the chimney, as well as the stack temperatures of the stove.

  • Page 30: The Advantage Of Installing A Blower (Fan)

    2.6 THE ADVANTAGE OF INSTALLING A BLOWER (FAN) A blower can be installed at the back of your E.P.A Drolet Pyropak 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 and convection power of your stove.

  • Page 32 Misuse is not covered by warranty. • Even though your E.P.A Drolet has been specifically designed and tested to prevent smoke spillage, always open the door slowly as this will minimise the likelihood of smoke spillage or a back draft of flame or smoke into the room.

  • Page 33: Fuel

    Fuel for the stove must not be stored closer than the required clearances to combustibles (heat sensitive materials). NEVER STORE WOOD IN THE ASH PAN COMPARTMENT. Your E.P.A Drolet stove is designed to burn . Do not burn coal, charcoal, or trash in the WOOD ONLY unit.

  • Page 34: The Use Of Manufactured Logs

    Decorative fireplaces generally have larger, cooler, and less air-tight fireboxes. Your E.P.A Drolet stove, on the other hand, has a smaller, completely sealed firebox which attains much higher temperatures. It is therefore not designed to support excessive heat caused by the addition of chemicals in manufactured logs.

  • Page 35: Lighting A Fire

    3.4 LIGHTING A FIRE • Place enough crumpled balls of newspaper or other paper into the stove to cover thbottom of the firebox. • Place small and dry kindling on the crumpled paper. • Place larger and dry kindling on top of the small kindling. •...

  • Page 36: Maintaining The Fire

    Your E.P.A Drolet stove will work best if a thick bed of hot embers is maintained in the bottom of the firebox, and a minimum of two large pieces of seasoned fuel are added. Combustion efficiency is largely related to establishing a hot ember bed, and hot firebox temperatures.

  • Page 37: Section 4.0 Maintenance

    ® glass 5mm thick supplied by your E.P.A Drolet dealer. Never use a substitute material. • To replace the glass, remove the screws retaining the glass retainers inside the door. Remove the mouldings and replace the damaged piece with a new one. Perform the procedure backwards after replacing.

  • Page 38: Gasketing

    If creosote has accumulated, it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney fire. Call a professional chimney sweep, or go to your local E.P.A Drolet dealer, purchase a chimney brush, and have the chimney cleaned. The chimney and chimney connector must be in good condition and kept clean.
