Note to international customers: You are responsible for any and all duties or taxes that may apply. (see details below)

  • Customs, Duties, and Taxes: Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. The recipient of an international shipment may be subject to customs brokerage fees, import duties, and taxes after the shipment reaches the destination country. Additional charges are the responsibility of the recipient because we have no control over these government-imposed charges and cannot determine what they may be. Customs policies vary greatly among countries. Therefore, we cannot, and will not, offer advice about taxes in your country. We report the amount of the sale on the Customs form. Please do not ask us to claim less than the actual purchase amount. It is the customers' responsibility to know the legality of the products ordered in their country. Do not order items that are illegal to import into your country. Laws are different in every country and we cannot keep up with them all. It is your responsibility to check with your Customs office to see if your country permits the shipment of our products to your country.
  • As the buyer, it is your responsibility to find out that information before you order. Please contact your local customs office for information.
  • To avoid a delay in receiving your order from customs, consider the following:
  • Provide us with a phone number where you can be reached by customs when your product arrives. This phone number will be listed on the commercial invoice so customs can reach you to clear your order.
  • Please do not refuse a shipment or ignore requests from carriers regarding duty and/or tax liability charges. Be aware that most carriers will hold a shipment for 5 days after arrival in your country before they return it to the sender.
  • We do not refund original shipping charges for goods that are refused for delivery at customs.
  • We will deduct all additional fees resulting from refused international shipments from your refund.
  • If we are charged for YOUR taxes and duties on the shipment or incur any penalty or lawsuit related to your order or shipment, we will post the charge to your credit card.
  • If the package is seized by Customs for any reason and we do not receive the package back, we will NOT issue you a refund since, obviously, local laws and regulations determine the fate of the package. If we do receive the package back after being seized, you are still responsible for the shipping charges and any other fees plus penalties incurred.
  • We ship via UPS and FedEx for most products, USPS for small parts and accessories, and freight for large products.
  • If you don't receive tracking information from us within six business days of your order confirmation, feel free to follow up with us at info@fyredirect.com

Cancellations & Refunds:

  • All orders canceled are subject to an administration fee equal to 15% of the total order amount, whether or not your order has shipped. This is a fee that covers administrative and personnel fees.
  • If your item is on backorder and you accept the backorder, we will hold your payment until the product ships. If you decide to cancel before a backorder arrives and is processed for shipping, we will not charge a fee.
  • If you order has shipped, you (the buyer) will be responsible for actual return shipping charges. Refunds will only be issued to the original credit card that you use when placing your order.
  • All orders cancelled due to COVID-19 are subject to a 5% cancellation fee.

  • From time to time, a product may run out of stock at our warehouse and the website wasn't updated when you placed your order. In that case, we will send you an email right after you place your order notifying you of the backorder, what the expected time for arrival is, and what substitutes are available in case you are interested in getting a bike sooner.
  • The expected arrival time may change due to unforeseen circumstances like a shipment getting held up at the port upon arrival or the factory missing a certain part needed to complete the manufacturing process.
  • If the arrival time changes on your order, you can let us know whether you would like to keep the order, substitute for a different product, or cancel the order altogether.
  • Once back orders arrive, we will notify you by email with your estimated ship date and you will receive an email with tracking information within 1-3 business days.

Our Story 

The founders, Daniel & Melissa, started FyreDirect.com to help those who want to turn their home into a sanctuary to relax in and be proud of!

In 2010, Daniel and Melissa a young couple with big dreams began their journey together into owning their own home. At the same time, Melissa was a few years working in real estate renovation and design whilst following the footsteps into the family business. Daniel was working full time whilst studying online-marketing with the ambition to soon start his own online-business. 

In the summer of that year after settling into their new home they decided to put their heads together and combine their skills into a business venture filled with passion. They had no idea where to even start, yet after many conversations together they both realized the potential their combined knowledge and experiences would offer to other home makers. They began researching the possibility of starting their own online fireplace store. 

Soon enough they realized that they couldn't find an online store that was easy to shop or had a wide-selection of fireplaces. Many also lacked educational articles to aid people in learning how to understand and maintain their fireplaces. This gave them the opportunity to showcase their knowledge and offer customers their expertise to help those who want to shop, browse, and learn all in one place. This led to the conception of FyreDirect.com, the very website you are on right now!   

Today, we stay true to our plan and are online-only. We aim to stay that way in order to offer our customers the lowest possible factory-direct prices, fastest shipping times, and world-class customer service by phone, email, and live chat. Operating online-only means we can offer all this without sacrificing any of the things that made us excited to start this business in the first place like being able to travel and help people all over the world.

Drolet heat commander

I would be happy to do a review but I can not yet because I do not have it installed. I have the stove in my basement ready to be installed by my local HVAC. I don’t have the funds to install it this year so I will have to get it installed next year hopefully before winter season. So if you want a review I will be happy to do so next fall unless I can run into funds to get this installed this fall yet.

Great Furnace!!

This is my first wood burning furnace I've owned but I'm no stranger to Drolet stoves. Would recommend this to anyone looking for a great heat source for there home. Runs itself with no trouble but do recommend use 20% and less moisture content wood. Other than that awsome product.
Fyredirect.com was quick about my order and the cheapest price. Thanks

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question
  • I would like to hook this up to my ductwork. Is this possible?

    Yes, it is possible.

    Please find the installation and operation manuals at the bottom of the product page. There you can find all the part measurements and compare them against your existing setup to make sure it all fits. 

    Any questions (specific or general) please feel free to email us at info@fyredirect.com. You can include as many pictures and diagrams as you want as well if you believe they might help. 

    Thank you, 
    FyreDirect team

  • How many C.F. M. is the hot air blower?

    Hello,

    The total capacity of the blower is 1135 CFM but for the use of the furnace it is set to run at 875 CFM. This allows a better circulation and reach the emission rates.

    It cannot be modified.

    Thank you,
    Fyre Direct

  • How is this product vented? Is this a power vent or does it need to be vented above the roof line so as to got have the smoke forced back into your home during high winds?

    This is not a power vent. It is draft like a wood stove. It needs to vent above the roof.

  • Hi my question is how loud the blower is I considered to install this stove in my living room/ great room. What is your recommendation.

    It's hard to calculate the sound level, but it's still a furnace, so it's not ideal to put it in a common room.
    Normally these are installed in the basement with the necessary connections or in a more insulated room.
