Frequently asked questions

The Deco Alto is rated to heat 500 to 2,100 square feet depending on your home's insulation, ceiling height, and local climate. At 75,000 BTU/h maximum output, it performs best as a primary heat source in medium to large open-plan homes.

You can view the exact dimensions in the official Drolet Deco Alto dimension drawing here:
https://www.drolet.ca/file/DB03220_Deco%20Alto.pdf
The dimension drawing is also the last image in the product photo gallery on this page (click to zoom in for a closer look at the measurements), and the key dimensions are listed in the Specifications section below.
In the USA with single-wall pipe: 11" from the back wall, 12" from a corner, and 22" from a side wall. Reducing to double-wall pipe cuts the back clearance to 6" and corner to 12". The unit must maintain 84" to any combustible ceiling. Always check your local building code as requirements may vary.
Yes. The Deco Alto ships with a pedestal and requires a non-combustible hearth pad underneath. The pad must extend the full footprint of the stove plus a minimum clearance on each exposed side as specified in your local fire code. Consult the installation manual for exact dimensions.
The Deco Alto requires a 6" diameter chimney rated to CAN/ULC S629 or UL 103 HT (2100°F) with a minimum height of 12 feet. A 6" flue liner in an existing masonry chimney is also acceptable. Using the correct chimney ensures proper draft and safe operation.
Yes to both. The Deco Alto is certified for mobile home installation when used with a fresh air intake kit (sold separately). It is also approved for alcove installation, giving flexible placement options in tighter spaces — provided all clearance requirements are met.
The Deco Alto achieves up to 8 hours of burn time with a full load of dry cordwood. Logs up to 20" long load east-west across the 2.4 ft³ firebox. Actual burn time varies with wood species, moisture content, and burn rate — dry hardwood under 20% moisture content is strongly recommended.
The Deco Alto ships with the stove and pedestal base. A blower is optional (not included). Drolet backs the Deco Alto with a limited lifetime warranty on the firebox and a manufacturer's warranty on parts — the same coverage offered across the Drolet wood stove line. Contact us for full warranty terms.
Yes, the Deco Alto is EPA 2020 certified at 2.3 g/h particulate emissions, well below the 2.5 g/h standard. On the tax credit: the 30% federal biomass stove tax credit (Section 25C, up to $2,000) was ended early by the 'One Big Beautiful Bill' signed in July 2025, and expired on December 31, 2025 — so there is no federal biomass stove tax credit for purchases in 2026 and onwards. Tax laws change often; confirm current credits with a tax professional or the IRS website before purchasing. Some state and local utility programs still offer rebates for efficient heating appliances — check your state energy office.

Deco Alto arrived by common carrier, A.Duie Pyle, the reason for my mentioning them by name is that they are not good at what they do. I awaited a call or email from them about the delivery, I wanted to be here to inspect the stove and to help with the offload. I was informed it was on its way on the 21st of April, 2026 and was able to track it from it start in VA, to NJ, and finally to Johnston, RI where it sat there until the 28th. I emailed ADP on the 24th and got a response on the same day saying they had tried to get a hold of me by phone, BULLCRAP. I responded on the 26th, a Saturday, and waited and got a response Monday, the 27th. My wife called that day and informed them that their window of delivery was fine, 11AM to 3PM either Monday or Tuesday, she also gave them or home phone, here cell, and my email again. Monday was a pass and Tuesday they delivered at 9:15, so much for 11 to 3. No one was home and the item could have been absconded. Unfortunately this overshadowed the stove showed up in A1 shape, great packing job. Thanks I hop to be able to respond to how the stove works as we put it through its paces during the coming winter. The literature that accompanied the stove was informative even though my wife and I have heated with wood since 1974. Thanks Roger and Michelle.

Nicely made, nicely packaged for delivery. Seems well made. INSTRUCTIONS SUCK! What terrible instructions. No packing list, no quick start guide I still have these two metal paddle shaped things I have no idea what they are supposed to be used for?? Scrapers for firebox??? No idea. You would have 5 starts if it wasn't for the REALLY crappy instructions. Its all safety and install charts and even the operation sections isn't well written.

The stove looks great but since the air control mechanism is not functional the advertised burn time of 8 hours can not be achieved. The longest burn time that can be achieved is less than two hours.

So far so good. Finally cold enough to have a couple of evening fires that kept the heat from running most of the night. Easy to start but have to give it some time before you can fully close the door. Once it gets established it will throw some heat. Best to wait until glowing embers before reloading, then a couple of pieces and its good for another couple of hours. Let the added wood catch well before closing the door. Beautiful viewing area, love seeing the fire after 40years of a stove that had solid doors. Glad we made the change, especially to the higher wood box when compared to our older model.
