    Repair/Replace Bakelite Handle for Morso 2B Standard (aka Squirrel)

    The threading on my bakelite handle has gone and it won't stay attached. The part is the "Bakelite Handle 72mm (Part #: 79118300)" I've found it on a ton of sites in the UK for under £10, but nobody wants to ship to NA/Canada for anywhere close to reasonable prices. Does anybody in North...

    Morso 2110 vs 3610

    Hello all, Thank you for this great forum! Lots of wisdom here. My wife and I have a 1,600sqft two floor house. First floor is 1,000sqft, second floor is 600sqft. We purchased our house last year and did our first winter. We were very cold last winter and tried to heat with only a 30,000BTU...

    Lange #6302a BTU Rating?

    I have an old Lang 6302a that I am thinking about replacing with something new. I know how it heats our beach cabin, but have no idea what that means for the BTU's. Does anybody here know the BTU rating that Lang put on these old 6302's? I'd also like some advice on what to buy. I'm not...

    Morso Standard 2b

    Hi all, I am wondering if anyone has any thoughts/ advice about the Morso Standard 2B? I'm looking for something in eastern Canada (we already have an Enviro pellet stove that I dislike, mainly for the noise and space component) but it appears there was a wood stove there before. Though it's...

    We are building a new house, and have chosen the Morso 1440 (convection squirrel) and Morso 6143 for our two main living spaces. I'd love to hear your thoughts on them generally, and get advice on choosing/ making a low-profile hearth pad. We are considering glass under the Morso 6143 (to show...

    Hi - relatively new wood stove user (Morso 3610 / 60,000 BTU stove), looking to possibly connect with other 3610 users. I had my stove installed in 2015 (in my basement which I recently had divided into two areas so that I could insulate the section using the stove) and at the present time only...

    Vintage Morso 6b Wood Stove

    Hi all, this will be my first post on this site, so hope all goes well. I've been in the wood heating game since I was born. My family heated (and still do) with wood as our primary and only source of heat, no backup. So, naturally I've decided to heat with wood myself and I have a wood...

    Air Intake Issue on Morso 5660

    Hey there.. first time poster here. I've got a Morso 5660, it's been the main source of heat in my home for 3 years. I love it,. The air intake adjustment lever was initially very tight and difficult to move. Now, it' s loose, and sounds jangly and feels uneven when it's adjusted... obviously...

    Heating 250 sq ft yurt

    Building a 250 sq ft yurt. I like the looks of the Morso Classic 2B but concerned about the 2 chambers on top come to meet the chimney pipe. Does this design complicate things? Compare to other small stoves - the small jotuls (forget the names) for example. Also the cigar box vs the smaller box...

    Morso Squirrel Flue Collar Question

    I just installed a morso squirrel and during my first fire I noticed some smoke leaking from the flue collar joint. Any thoughts on what may be causing this? I installed the chimney pipe over the outside of flue collar (it was a super tight fit)...was this correct? Also wondering about my elbow...

    Jotul 602/Morso Squirrel vs BK Sirocco 20

    I've read a bunch around here, and wanted to ask your opinions. Heating a roughly 256sq ft room with plenty of ventilation and solidly insulated (either rigid board or wool), I realize that most of my options are overkill. From what I've calculated, I only need roughly 12k btu/hr for that space...
