21 WOODSTOVE UTILIZATION Your heating unit was designed to burn wood onl y; no other materials should be burnt. Wastes and other flammable materials should not be burnt in your wood st ove. Any type of wood may be used in your stove, but specif ic varieties have better energy yields than others.
22 Smaller pieces of wood will dry faster. All logs exceeding 6" in diameter should be split. The wood should not be stored dire ctly on the ground. Air should circulate through the cord. A 24" to 48" air space should be left between eac h row of logs, which should be placed in the sunniest location possible.
HEATING Controlled combustion is the most efficient technique for wood heating because it enables you to select the type of com bustion 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.
24 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 ma ximum a few seconds prior to opening the stove's door.
25 ASH DISPOSAL Ashes should be removed from the stove every fe w days or when ashes get to 2 to 3 inches deep. Always empty the stove when it is cold, such as in the morning.
26 MAINTENANCE Your Drolet stove is a high efficiency stove and therefore require little maintenance. It is important to perform a visual ins pection of the stove every time it is emptied, in order to insure that no parts have been damaged, in which case repairs must be performed immediately.
