Your Drolet insert will attain its best performance if installed with a chimney that generates its own draft. The minimum requirement of a flue will be the installation of a flue connector (the liner must conform to UL1777 chimney liners) from the insert into the first flue tile of the chimney (USA), see Figure 2.3 , or a continuous stainless steel liner (the liner must conform to the Class 3 requirements of CAN/ULC-S635) directly connected to the flue outlet (Canada), see Figure 2.2.

Round chimneys are the most efficient. The interior diameter of the chimney should be identical to the stove's smoke exhaust. A chimney which is too small may cause draft problems, since it may not have the required volume to properly evacuate the quantity of smoke resulting from the combustion. A chimney which is too large may also cause draft problems. In fact, a large chimney will be harder to warm-up and may not reach high enough temperatures to create a proper draft effect. Note that it is
ASH DISPOSAL Ashes should be removed from the stove every few days or when ashes get to 2 to 3 inches deep. Always empty the stove when it is cold, such as in the morning.
