CAUTION:  Ashes can start fires, even after several days of inactivity.  Never dispose of 
ashes in a combustible container.    Remove ashes only when the insert and 
ashes are cold.
 
 
Ashes should be removed from the insert frequently.  When ashes are removed, they should be placed in 
a metal container with a tightly fitting lid.  The closed container of ashes should be placed on a non-
combustible floor or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal.  If 
the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the 
closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.  Do not place other waste materials in the 
metal ash container. 
 
4.3 Chimney Cleaning 
 
Regular chimney maintenance, as well as good burning practices, are required to prevent chimney fires. 
The chimney and the chimney connector pipe must be maintained in good condition and be kept clean 
for optimal safety. The chimney should be checked regularly for creosote build-up.  Inspection and 
cleaning of the chimney can be facilitated by removing the baffle.

Contact your local, municipal, state, or provincial fire authority for information on how to handle a 
chimney fire before there is any chance that it may happen. 
 
Creosote – Formation And Need For Removal 
When wood (especially green wood) is burned without adequate heat or air supply, it produces tar and 
other organic vapours (smoke), which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote.  
The creosote vapours condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow-burning fire.  As a result, 
creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining.  When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot 
fire, which could be hazardous.  Check frequently for creosote build-up.  In the event of a insert or 
chimney component failure, replace only with equipment that is equivalent to the original, available 
from your Drolet dealer. 
 
Your Drolet insert has been designed to reduce the amount of creosote produced.  Even so, the chimney 
connector pipe and chimney should be inspected at least once every two months during the heating 
season to determine if a creosote build-up has occurred.  If creosote has accumulated, it should be 
removed to reduce the risk of chimney fire. Call a professional chimney sweep, or go to your local 
Drolet dealer and purchase a chimney brush, and have the chimney cleaned.
