For overnight burning, you should put a lot of fuel in the stove and reduce the air
intake.
Lighting in the summer when the heat requirement is low, a small bright fire should
be established. Prolonged ‘idling’ fires or fires using wet or ‘green’ wood will result
in poor combustion and will therefore create a higher risk of soot and tar formation
within the flue. Allowed to build-up these deposits can potentially lead to a chim-
ney fire.

Your Morsø stove is DS approved for burning with wood, but of course it is also
possible to burn it with other types of fuel, depending on how frequently you want
to use your stove.
Briquettes of brown coal and wood are suitable as supplementary fuel. They are
easy to light and ideal for night burning since they smoulder for a long time.
Coke and other manufactured smokeless coals and are also suitable and are ideal
for over night burning. They do however require larger amounts of combustion air
than wood fires.
High sulphur content fuels like bituminous house coal is not recommended and if
used will reduce the life of the internal cast parts.
