Drolet Eco-55 CT Pellet Stove

Easy to use and maintain, the Eco-55 pellet stove is ideal for heating spaces up to 2,000 ft². It features intuitive electronic control and easy to use thermostatic control. Cleaning is a breeze, with access to components that are removable without tools. Certified at only 0.96 g/h, the Eco-55 produces up to 39,260 BTU/h, and provides clean and efficient heating. The Eco-55 ST is the ”step top” version of the classic Eco-55: its top being on two levels, the hopper is larger and therefore allows greater autonomy.

The information given on the certification label affixed to the appliance always overrides the information published in any other media (owner’s manual, catalogues, flyers, magazines and/or web sites).
Some appliances have been tested with a low ceiling. Before setting up your unit, refer to the installation manual.

Unless stated otherwise, measures were taken directly at the main power source and include all electrical components present in the appliance.
Optimum overall efficiency at a specific burn rate (LHV).
This appliance is officially tested and certified by an independent agency.
Based on the maximum burn-rate and a dry energy value of pellet at 8,600 BTU/lb.
As measured per CSA B415.1-10 stack loss method.
Efficiency based on radiated and delivered heat when allowing cycling from high to low burn to simulate thermostat demand.
Lower Heating Value of the fuel.
Higher Heating Value of the fuel.
The optimum heat transfer efficiency is for the low burn rate (using HHV) and represents the appliance’s ability to convert the energy contained in the solid fuels into energy transferred to the room in the form of heat and does not take into account the chemical losses during combustion.
Recommended heating area and maximum burn time may vary subject to location in home, chimney draft, heat loss factors, climate, fuel type, feed rate, fuel level, and other variables. The recommended heated area for a given appliance is defined by the manufacturer as its capacity to maintain a minimum acceptable temperature considering that the space configuration and the presence of heat distribution systems have a significant impact in making heat circulation optimum.
Grades of pellet fuel are determined by organizations such as Pellet Fuels Institute (PFI), ENplus and CANplus.
