3.0 Routine stove maintenance
3.1 External maintenance
The surface of the stove is painted with heat-resistant Senotherm paint. If the stove is used
too vigorously, the painted surface may take-on a greyish tinge. It is easily maintained by sim-
ply vacuuming the surface with a soft brush attachment and applying two light layers of paint.
Morsø stoves are painted using a Morsø Original Black (previously called Morsø dark grey)
or Morsø grey. The paint can be bought in a spray or a can.
3.2 Internal maintenance
Ceramic glass
If the stove is used and installed onto a ue with the correct draft, very little or no deposits
should appear on the ceramic glass. It is usual for soot deposits to appear during long slum-
bering res however, once the re has been re-established to a burn brightly, these deposits
should burn o.
If the glass window becomes thoroughly covered in soot due to faulty operation or poor
draft, the soot can be easily removed using, e.g. Morsø Glass Cleaner, but please ensure that
the glass is cold before cleaning. Avoid fuelling the stove with wood that is so long that it
presses against the glass when the door is closed.
Ceramic glass replacement
Ceramic glass cannot be recycled because it has a higher melting point that ordinary glass.
If ceramic glass is mixed with ordinary glass, the raw material is spoiled, and the reclaiming
process may be halted. Take care that the ovenproof glass does not end up among ordinary
recycled waste. That will be a great benet to the environment.
Note: Should be handed in to a recycling station as ceramic glass.
Internal cast-iron parts and/or wear components
The shaking grate, bae plate and other internal components that are in direct contact with
the re are all constituted as ‘wear’ components or consumables, as, they are exposed to
the most wear. When used properly, these parts will last for many years, but overly vigorous
use will naturally shorten the lifespan. The aforementioned parts are all easily replaceable.
If the bae plate is damaged or warped and is not replaced in time, the top plate could be-
come subject to excessively high temperatures, which may lead to damage here also.
Note: that no unauthorised alterations to the stove design should be undertaken, and always
ensure that any replacement parts purchased are Morsø original parts.
Reasons for sooty glass window:
- The fuel is too wet.
- The pieces of fuel are to big/uncut wood.
- The combustion temperature is too low.
- Too much air coming through the bottom grate.
- Poor chimney draft.
