The stove door should normally be opened gently the rst 2 - 3 centimetres, then you should
wait until the pressure has equalised before opening the door all the way. This technique will
prevent smoke from getting out, particularly when there is a poor draught.
The stove door should never be opened when the stove is being red vigorously.
Once the wood has burned out, it becomes glowing charcoal. If a good layer of embers has
already formed on top of a sucient layer of ash, the stove can keep warm for a very long
time, not least due to the favourable qualities of the cast iron.
A front grate for wood burning is available as accessory. Ask your Morsø dealer.
We would strongly recommend that you do not leave your stove alit at night. It harms
the environment and constitutes very poor use of the wood as the gases in the wood do not
ignite at the low temperature, but settle as soot (unburned gases) in the chimney and stove. Ex-
treme conditions, such as poor draught in the chimney, large quantities of wood or wet wood,
may in the worst-case scenario cause an explosive ignition.
When ring in the summer period, when there is minimal need for heat, the combustion will be poor.
e stove provides too much heat so the combustion should be reduced. But always remember to make
sure that there are lasting ames until the wood becomes charcoal. If you want a weaker re, stoke up
using less wood.
If you re the stove using wet wood, a lot of the fuel’s thermal energy will be spent forcing the wa-
ter out of the wood, without releasing any heat to the stove. is incomplete combustion results
in a layer of soot being le in the stove, pipe and chimney.
