The wood-burning stove must never been connected to a chimney to which a gas-burning
stove or appliance is connected.
An efficient modern stove places heavy demands on the chimney, and you should have the
chimney regularly swept and inspected by your approved chimney sweep.
The cross-sectional area of the chimney (at its narrowest point) must comply with National
and Local Building Regulations. Generally, the area needed for a Morsø wood-burning stove
installation should measure at least 175 cm (150 mm diameter). An over-sized chimney is
generally hard to keep warm and results in poor draft. In cases where there is an oversized
masonry chimney, it is recommended that the chimney be lined using an appropriate chimney
lining system with the correct internal diameter. With respect to the chimney termination, all
chimneys should terminate in accordance with National and Local Building Regulations. Note
that National and Local Regulations also apply with regard to the placement of chimneys and
flues in connection with thatched roofs. See the section on Draft Conditions, 1.9.
The chimney or flue system must be equipped with access doors for inspection and cleaning.
The size of the cleaning door in the chimney must at least equal to that of the cross-section-
al area of the chimney.
1.6 Fluepipe connections
Your stove is supplied ready for a top flue connection (3) the rear flue outlet is fitted with a
cover plate and is situated behind the rear heat shield/convection panel. Where a rear flue in-
stallation is required, simply knock out the steel plates in the rear heat shield/convection pan-
el. This is best done by applying gentle hammer taps immediately onto the small ”bridges”
in the circular cut-outs. Once the knock-outs have been removed unbolt the cast iron cov-
er plate and install it into the top of the stove. The flue collar can then be bolted over the rear
flue outlet using the bolts and clamps provided.
Placement of smoke tray
In some cases Morsø stoves come ready-equipped from the factory with a smoke hood (1),
as shown in the diagram. (NOTE: Not all stoves require a smoke hood). Where applicable, the
smoke hood must not be used if the stove is to be installed with a rear flue outlet (3).
Please note:
During firing, the cleaning valve must always be installed correctly in the baffle
as the top cover may otherwise overheat and sustain per-
manent damage. Make sure that the baffle, smoke hood,
firebricks and the riddling grate are positioned correctly.
