•Even though your 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.

•Never use gasoline type lantern fuel, kerosene, solvents, charcoal lighter fluid, or inflammable liquids to start or "refresh" a fire in the stove. Keep all such liquids well away from the stove while it is in use.

•All stove surfaces become very hot during operation. Care is needed, especially with children, to avoid contact with those surfaces.

•Do not elevate the fire by means of grates.

•CAUTION: DO NOT OVER FIRE THIS HEATER. Do not burn fuel in the stove at a rate higher than that which will cause the ember bed level to exceed half the door opening height. We strongly recommend that you purchase a chimney (flue) thermometer. There are two types of thermometers:

probe thermometers and magnetic thermometers (the later is also called “stove top thermometer”). If you are using a probe thermometer, make sure that the temperature does not exceed 900oF (482oC). If you are using a magnetic thermometer, make sure that the temperature does not exceed 475oF (246oC). If the door handle of the stove becomes excessively hot to the touch, consider this to be an indication of over firing. Over firing can result in a safety hazard and can permanently damage the stove and chimney. This damage is not covered by the warranty.

•Although the ceramic glass is extremely durable under any normal use, a few precautions are required. Do not attempt to push logs further into the fire by using the door, as the glass may break if any solid object heavily contacts it.

•Never operate the stove with the door open, or cracked slightly open, except briefly during the lighting operation, and during refuelling. Leaving the door open continuously could seriously overheat the chimney and adjacent combustibles. Do not operate the stove if there is an abnormal air leakage into the stove, such as through deteriorated gaskets or cracked or broken glass. Do not operate the stove without a door gasket. Leakage can result in overheating, or in very airtight homes, could possibly cause smoking into the room. Smoke may contain carbon monoxide, which is poisonous, and in sufficient quantities, is a health hazard.

3.2FUEL

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.

UL 1482, ULC S627 specifications

The Drolet ULC S627 is a highly regarded wood stove designed for efficiency and performance in residential spaces. This model not only meets but exceeds the stringent criteria set by UL 1482 standards, which ensure quality and safety in wood-burning appliances. The S627 represents a blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern technology, making it ideal for homeowners seeking an effective heating solution.

One of the standout features of the Drolet ULC S627 is its impressive heating capacity. With the ability to warm areas of up to 2,000 square feet, it is suitable for medium to large-sized rooms. This makes it an excellent choice for users looking to heat an open floor plan or a cozy cabin. The stove's robust construction and design help to retain and radiate heat efficiently, allowing for a consistent warmth that enhances comfort during colder months.

The S627 employs advanced combustion technology, which allows for cleaner and more complete burning of wood. This results in higher efficiency, translating to reduced wood consumption and lower emissions. The addition of a secondary combustion system ensures that any remaining gases and particulates are burned off, contributing to a cleaner burn. This feature not only complies with environmental regulations but also allows for longer burn times, making it a practical choice for users who prefer less frequent refueling.

Ergonomics is another aspect where the Drolet ULC S627 excels. The stove is designed with a user-friendly door that provides easy access to the firebox for loading wood and cleaning ash. The large glass window allows users to enjoy the mesmerizing visual of the fire while ensuring heat is efficiently radiated into the room. The clean-out system is also conveniently placed to simplify maintenance.

Aesthetic versatility is another highlight of the Drolet ULC S627, as its timeless design allows it to fit into various interior décors. Available in classic black or elegant enamel finishes, it can complement a rustic or modern setting. This blend of functionality and aesthetic appeal makes the stove a focal point within living spaces.

In summary, the Drolet ULC S627, with its strong adherence to UL 1482 standards, offers homeowners an efficient, clean, and visually appealing wood-burning solution. Its impressive heating capabilities, advanced combustion technologies, and thoughtful design make it a compelling choice for those looking to enhance their home heating experience.
