Hello All,
I signed up for an account last year while doing research, but this is my first post. Just purchased and installed a Drolet Deco Nano in my three season room. About 6 ft of double stove pipe connected to 12 feet of class a chimney pipe for a total of approximately 18ft. Plan is to use mostly on the weekend to keep the 3 season room more useable during the winter. I’ve had 2 fires so far trying to cure the paint. First fire was about 375-425 stove top and second fire 650-700 stove top temp. First fire I could definitely smell the paint. Second fire, similar smell, but also a Smokey haze in the room. Is this normal for the paint curing process? Draft seemed good once fire was going so I don’t think it was smoke from the fire itself.
