If you are referring to the sealing gasket between the stove flue collar and connecting flue pipe a 5mm diameter gasket should be used. Every Morsø stove is supplied with a length of 5mm gasket in the instruction pack. With the exception of a few of the latest steel stoves all of the appliances use the same 8mm diameter gasket for doors and body joints. However the gasket material used on our stove is softer than many available. If a harder 8mm gasket is used it is unlikely the doors with closes and the resulting pressure on the hinges may damage the castings. Genuine Morsø door and body gasket kits with adhesive are available from your nearest authorised Morsø dealer (kit part number 62903400) Hi Rob

We produce three stove compatible with an add in boiler, the Squirrel’s 1410 and 1430 can both be fitted with a direct feed 8’000 BTU (2.3kW) boiler. The Morsø Dove 1630 has an optional indirect feed 30’000 BTU (9.9kW). Dear Richie

The stoves performance is reliant on the flue draft and larger unlined flues will cool the flue gas temperature resulting in a slower draft. Combustion air is only sucked into the stove as the flue pulls, if the pull is reduced lack of air in the stove is likely to produce sooty deposits on the glass and may cause the flame to suffocate and go out. A more serious consequence of cooler flue gas temperature is condensation, condensing flue gases will deposit tar on the inner surface of the chimney potentially leading to a chimney fire.

Tertiary air inlets are pre set and have no adjustment flaps or control; its purpose is to guarantee sufficient combustion into the fire box at the right point to give a good clean efficient burn. The clearance of smoke and other products of combustion from the stove is completely reliant on the flue draft. As the flue draws it will place the stove under a negative pressure thereby taking the combustion products away and drawing fresh combustion air into the appliance. If there is insufficient flue draft there will be a positive pressure inside the stove resulting in smoke and products being forced out into the room via the air inlets. The draft in the chimney is the result of the difference between the high temperature in the chimney and the cooler temperature outside. Other factors that determine whether there will be sufficient draft include the height of the chimney, climatic conditions such as wind speed, wind direction and air pressure. If the problems you have experienced are intermittent or if there has only been a small amount of smoke emitted into the room during the light procedure it may simply be the chimney is not getting hot enough fast enough. This can be down to climatic conditions or the method of lighting. It is better to start the stove with paper and kindling rather than firelighters as firelighters generally won’t produce as much heat. Also don’t be concerned about leaving the door of the stove ajar (about 2cm) for10 to 15 minute at the time of lighting if the flue is slow to warm. If however there is a large amount of smoke or if the smoke is persistent DO NOT continue to use the stove until you have contacted your dealer and or installer and the chimney construction and flue draft have been checked with an appropriate draft gauge .

On taking the bricks out i find that there are 2 holes in the back of the stove which connect to the ones in the bricks,so is this where the smoke is coming from and should they not have a control flap to shut them off?  I have a morso 1416 which i have noticed smoke coming from the back when lighting.

There is an easy way to determine which Badger you have, the 3110’s secondary air control is located above the door and the 3112’s secondary air control can be found below the ash lip at the bottom of the door. We believe the part you are describing is the access baffle; the part number for this item is 34341400 for the 3110 and 34313600 for the 3112. Both of these parts are in stock and available from your nearest authorised Morsø dealer. Over the past 12 years we have produced two different models of Badger stove, the 3110 and the 3112.
