Drolet Escape 1500 Wood Stove - DB03135
Combining performance and respect for the environment, the Escape 1500 is the perfect choice for heating homes up to 1,800 ft². With only 1.26 g/h of particulate emissions, this non-catalytic wood stove gives off up to 65,000 BTU/h while largely meeting EPA standards. The unit is equipped with side panels which helps reduce clearances to combustible materials and a top heat exchanger which redirects heat to the front of the unit.
Included: pedestal with ash drawer, airmate, ceramic glass, side panels, ash lip, air damper

(1)This appliance is officially tested and certified by an independent agency.
(2)Values are as measured per test method, except for the recommended heating area, firebox volume, maximum burn time and maximum heat output.
()Recommended heating area and maximum burn time may vary subject to location in home, chimney draft,heat loss factors, climate, fuel type 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 in the designated area in case of a power failure.
(3)The maximum heat output (dry cordwood) is based on a loading density varying between 15 lb/ft³ and 20 lb/ft³ and reloading intervals ranging from 60 to 120 minutes. Other performances are based on a fuel load prescribed by the standard without any reloading between start and finish. The specified loading density varies between 7 lb/ft³ and 12 lb/ft³. The moisture content is between 19% and 25%.
(4)As measured per CSA B415.1-10 stack loss method.
(5)Higher Heating Value of the fuel.
(6)Lower Heating Value of the fuel.
(7)Performances based on a fuel load prescribed by the standard at 7 lb/ft³ and with a moisture content between 19% and 25%.
(8)Optimum overall efficiency at a specific burn rate (LHV).
(9)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 wood logs into energy transferred to the room in the form of heat and does not take into account the chemical losses during combustion.
This one is terrific!! There is plenty of heat output for our basement family room to keep everyone warm while watching TV!! We all love this.

pretty good
Overall, the flames appear excellent quality and provide a good effect. I really like it even though it was a little beat up when it arrived, with a few scratches on the glass and a broken piece of plastic holding the glass in, there were also few scuffs on the plastic, as if someone may have returned it before I got it. other than that, i have no more complaint. I like this stove, just so unfortunate to receive on with few scratches.

This stove will be VERY hard to beat for the money.
Easy to use, no smoke, has an afterburner that is really effective. I fill it full of wood, choke it down and go to work. 8hrs + later I come home, push the coals around, load it and it fires right back up. This stove gets hot and stays hot if your wood is dry like it should be. Glass stays very clean as well. Don't hesitate, this is a great stove!

Lots of heat
Excellent heat output. Warmth that lasts all night and is even. When the door is opened to load more wood, it frequently emits a lot of smoke into the space. Update: This is more sensitive to creosote buildup and chimney restrictions than our last stove. Once we cleaned the chimney it solved the smoking problems and now works great. This also helped burn more efficiently so the glass stays cleaner.

Great heat, good quality.
This unit heats my entire 1500 square foot house to 50 degrees on a chilly winter night when I put a typical load of seasoned oak. I switch off the heating system. and place a large pan of water on top to act as a humidifier that will steam all night. The heat shields protect the wall behind it 18" away and I didn't even do anything on the regularly painted sheetrock. The wall is warm to touch when the stove is at maximum heat but the wall is not hot. Get this on sale and you'll have a lot of value for your money, or you can also ask for a discount just like what I did.
