2.0 Firing/using the stove
The heat emission of the stove is regulated with the regulation lever above the door.
The stove uses three types of combustion air.
The secondary combustion air is supplied down along the glass. This air is regulated with the
lever under the door.
The tertiary combustion air is supplied to the combustion right over the fire. This air supply may
not be regulated.
The pilot combustion air provides for the activation of embers and keeps the combustion going
even at the lowest damper position. This air supply comes from two nozzles on the front frame
below the door. This air supply may not be regulated.
The nominal heat output of the stove is 8.0 kW.
Your new Morsø stove is EN tested and recommended for burning wood.
nB!
Wood is a material that contains a great deal of gas (approx. 75%). The gases are released
when the wood is lit and heated. For this reason, it is important that these gases are ignited
quickly after stoking. If the wood just lies smouldering, especially after re-stoking, a lot of
smoke is created which, in the worst case, may cause an explosive ignition of the gases, re-
sulting in damage to the stove.
In order to ignite the gases that are released from the wood, and to keep clear, lasting fla-
mes during the combustion process, it is important to let in the required quantity of oxygen
(air supply) at all times. The setting of the air supply, the method of ignition and the lighting
intervals depend on the draught in the chimney, the wind and weather, the amount of heat
required, the fuel, etc. This means that it may take some time before you get to know the
correct functioning of the stove under any given circumstances.
Although you can fire your Morsø stove with almost all kinds of wood, you should not fire
with wet wood, or unseasoned wood. Wood ought to be stored under a roof for at least 1
year, and preferably 2 years, with free access to wind. Wood should be chopped as soon as
possible after felling if it is to dry quickly. The wood can be used once the moisture is less
than 20%. During the En test, all stoves are tested with wood with a moisture content of (16
± 4)%.
never use driftwood as it usually has a high salt content, which damages both the stove and
the chimney. Impregnated and painted wood and chipboard emit poisonous smoke and fu-
mes so they should not be used as fuel either
Please note that liquid fuel may not be used in the stove.
Pieces of wood with a diameter exceeding 10 cm should always be chopped.
The pieces of wood should be short enough to be able to lie flat over the layers of embers,
with air at both ends. The maximum length of fuel in the stove is 60 cm. The maximum qu-
antity of fuel is approx. 3,5 kg/hour.
The first few times you light the stove, the fire should be moderate so that the heat-resi-
stant paint can harden before firing more vigorously. During the hardening phase, the paint
may develop obnoxious smoke and smell the first time it is lit, which is very normal. Make
sure that the room is well ventilated during this period.
