The wood-burning stove must never been connected to a chimney to which a gas-burning
stove or appliance is connected.
An ecient 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 cm2 (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
ues in connection with thatched roofs. See the section on Draft Conditions, 1.9.
The chimney or ue system must be equipped with access doors for inspection and clean-
ing. The size of the cleaning door in the chimney must at least equal to that of the cross-
sectional area of the chimney.
1.6 Fluepipe connections
Your stove is supplied ready for a top ue connection (3) the rear ue outlet is tted with a cover
plate and is situated behind the rear heat shield/convection panel. Where a rear ue installation is
required, simply knock out the steel plates in the rear heat shield/convection panel. 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 cover plate and install it into the top of the
stove. The ue collar can then be bolted over the rear ue outlet using the 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 ue outlet (3).
Please note: During ring, the cleaning valve
must always be installed correctly in the bae
as the top cover may otherwise overheat and
sustain permanent damage. Make sure that the
bae, smoke hood, rebricks and the riddling
grate are positioned correctly.
