Morso Dealer Profile

Superior Saw in Mason, Michigan, is unique in that it is both a hearth retailer and a supplier of tree and arbor products. Owner Brian Cady prefers a hand’s on approach to demonstrating wood stove operations, and that also includes cutting, splitting, and stacking all of the wood he burns in his 5400 sq ft saw and stove shop. Cady even learned about the Morso quality difference by assembling a stove and touring the factory, when he and his wife Jennifer visited Denmark last as part of the August Dealer Trip promotion.

To give his customers a better feel for the heat output and log size requirements, he has chosen to burn the 8150 and 8147 stoves, and uses an unlit installed 2B classic to attract attention near the door. Cady estimates that he stocks almost half of Morso’s US product line. While Superior Saw has a steady steam of business year round, there has been a pleasant up tick in Morsø stove sales lately from more affluent customers in neighboring communities.

Texas Tech Students Install Morso 3142 in Green Research & Design Sustainable Cabin

The College of Architecture at Texas Tech University has successfully installed their student-built sustainable cabin - complete with a Morsø 3142 wood stove - on the grounds of the Pease River Foundation in Crowell, TX. This project involved the construction of a prefabricated self-sustaining cabin to be used as a laboratory to test and quantify sustainable architectural concepts, and to help future architects make key design decisions.

Even Paradise needs to keep warm!

Located in Hilo, Hawaii, a coastal town on the Island of Hawaii (sometimes called the Big Island), The Fireplace and Home Center is proudly celebrating their 30th anniversary. For owners Sally and Jeffrey Mermel, it was a simple request back in 1979 that sparked the beginning of their successful hearth business - Sally wanted a fireplace. Jeffrey explains, “To get Sally to move to Volcano from Hilo and marry me, she said my house would need a fireplace, so I ordered one for the house and one to sell in my gift shop.”

Today, three decades later in a storefront next to their Most Irresistible gift shop, the Mermel’s are passionately touting the cozy, warm virtues of beautiful Morsø stoves. We congratulate and applaud the Mermel’s on their long-time business and marriage success, and view them as wonderful role models for the new generation of Morsø hearth dealers and green supply retailers who are just starting out and looking forward.

Consider Morsø as Your “Organic Section” When Shopping For a Wood Burning Stove

Imagine for a moment your hearth or green supply store is much like the vegetable section of your supermarket. You have many varieties of fresh products; you may even have two or three choices of the same product. However, your preferred high quality, unmodified favorites are located in the “Organic Section”.

Now consider Morsø as your “Organic Section” when shopping for a wood burning stove. Like any organically grown product, it’s always wise to read the label. When it comes to wood stoves and the environment, you’ll find that Morsø has gone the extra mile to produce the highest quality and energy efficient wood stove, possible. Recycling initiatives and dedicated crafts people make sure that the Morsø ingredients in every stove are environmentally friendly, durable; and they have certainly not been “modified" to meet a particular price.

Nevertheless, when it comes to a clean and safe environment, the user must also make certain that they operate the stove correctly. When a Morsø stove is used as recommended, you should not see smoke from the chimney.

In order to avoid unwanted smoke, you need to follow these fundamental steps:

• Make sure your chimney is the correct size in relation to the stove. A good chimney draw is essential for optimum combustion. 

• Never burn waste, cardboard packaging, printed matter or wood that has been painted or in some other way treated

• Make sure the wood is clean and dry. Moisture Content of max 16-20% gives the best and cleanest combustion (and also less soot on the glass...)

• Never overfill the stove and avoid using oversized pieces of fuel.

• Oxygen is extremely important for maintaining clean combustion and good fuel economy. Before the wood carbonizes (reaches the charcoal stage) always provide adequate oxygen.

• Never fully close the primary air immediately after adding fresh fuel. When extended burn periods are required, always ensure the fire is well established with a good bed of glowing coals in the firebox before closing the primary air.

Morsø Keeps Cold Out With Promising Back-up Security

Heating costs are typically the highest and most variable home expenses, which is why many homeowners are taking advantage of the tax credit to lower overall heating costs with energy- efficient Morsø wood stoves.

 
Mother Nature has also given homeowners cause to add a supplementary heating source. When ice or snow downs power lines, homes with Morsø stoves are cozy and warm, with no worry of frozen pipes.

With the introduction of two new Zero-Clearance Enclosures, almost any home can now enjoy high-performance and wood fuel independence. An excellent option for homeowners looking to update their homes with the advanced technology of a Morsø 5660 fireplace insert and class A chimney. Made in the USA, the Morsø 5660 Zero-Clearance Enclosure is designed to be framed into the home and when finished off properly leaves a clean, flat-wall appearance.

Save money and don’t risk being powerless in the cold. Now is the right time to make this life-warming home improvement investment. Morsø has a large selection of compact, modern styled, cast-iron wood stoves.

All Morsø stoves achieve high fuel efficiency through advanced wood combustion techniques. In the U.S. all Morsø stove models qualify for the IRS consumer tax credit of 30% (up to $1500) available for the purchase and installation of a 75% efficient biomass stove, available through the end of 2010.
