PAINT
Only clean your stove with a dry soft clothe that will not harm the paint finish.
If the paint becomes scratched or damaged, it is possible to give your wood stove a brand
new look, by repainting it with a 1200
o
F heat resistant paint. For this purpose, simply
scrub the surface to be repainted with fine sand paper, clean it properly, and apply thin
coats (2) of paint successively. Refer to page 18 of the present manual for the paint
curing process.
WHEN DO I NEED TO REPLACE THE FIREBRICKS?
The firebricks in your stove are there to protect the steel from the excessive heat of the
flames and embers. Without firebricks,
your stove would wear out prematurely. It could also
become to hot and cause objects or structures nearby to catch fire. If you notice that some
firebricks are disintegrated and the steel is directly in contact with the fire or embers, replace
the firebricks immediately. If you only notice cracks on some firebricks, it is not necessary to
replace them. The frequency at which you will change your firebricks depends on how often
you use your stove.
There are different sizes of firebricks. Most stores will sell firebricks with a dimension of
4,5”X9”X1,25”. These firebricks are adequate for many stoves, but will not fit on all Drolet
units. It is preferable that you visit our parts section in order to clearly identify the type of
firebrick that you need.
REPLACEMENT PARTS
Replacement parts can be located on our web site at
