1.5 The chimney
Only if National or Local Regulations permit are you permitted to connect a stove into a chim-
ney that is shared by another appliance. YOU MUST be aware of any applicable Regulations
in this respect.
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 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 flues in connection with thatched roofs. See the section on Draft Condi-
tions, 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-sectional
area of the chimney. In the event that a chimney fire occurs resulting from faulty operation or
prolonged use of damp wood fuel, close the air vents completely and contact your local fire
department immediately.
1.6 Fluepipe connections
The Stove comes ready prepared to accept an outside air-box kit, for markets where national
or local authorities require it. The outside air-box kit is ordered separately – Product Code:
54362021, detailed fitting instructions are included within the kit.
The stove is supplied with a factory fitted flue collar (1), this is fitted to the top plate. A round
cast iron blanking plate covers the rear flue outlet (behind the rear heat shield). Where a rear
flue installation is required, simply knock out the top steel plate in the rear heat convection
panel. This is best done by applying gentle hammer taps immediately onto the small ”bridg-
es” in the circular cut-outs. Once the knock-outs have been removed unbolt the cast iron
blanking 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.
The cast iron blanking plate can also function as an extra clean-out access whilst performing
the annual cleaning service of the stove and chimney.
