Description
The Morso Squirrel 1412 is one of the most loved small wood stoves in the world, a compact cast iron heater decorated with Morso’s classic squirrel relief on both sides. It is a charming pick for a cottage, a city flat, a study or a snug, and it heats a small room quickly.
Morso Squirrel 1412 Features
Small stove, generous window
For such a compact stove, the viewing window is large. You get a good view of the flames from your chair, which makes a small room feel much cosier.
Clean glass with air wash
Morso’s combustion system includes an air wash that sweeps air over the inside of the glass. When the stove is fired correctly with dry wood, the glass stays clear and you clean it far less often.
Easy to clean out
It comes with a riddling grate, ash tray and ash pan. Riddle the grate, slide out the pan and the job is done in minutes, so the stove is ready for the next fire.
Cast iron that radiates
At 70 kg, the cast iron body radiates warmth into the room and holds heat after the fire dies down. It is rated as multi fuel, so it can burn wood or coal.
Is the Squirrel fireplace right for your home?
We do not have a Morso heating figure in our data, so as a rough guide a stove of 5 to 7kW suits a small to medium room of about 40 to 70 m2. The 5.9kW Squirrel sits at the smaller end, ideal for a study, bedroom, cottage lounge or office. It measures 36.8 x 38.8 x 54.6 cm. Compare it with our other freestanding fireplaces if you need more heat.
Installation in Cape Town
Our team supplies and installs the stove with a 125 mm flue, a cowl that handles the south-easter and flashing that keeps winter rain out, then issues the compliance certificate. Find out how our fireplace installation in Cape Town works, or browse the full Morso range.
