The Morso Squirrel 1010 is the dedicated wood-burning version of the legendary Squirrel stove. Designed for those who prefer the specific heat profile and flame pattern of seasoned timber, this 4.9kW cast-iron stove offers a classic Danish aesthetic and an exceptionally high standard of construction.


Morso Squirrel 1010: The Dedicated Wood-Burning Specialist

The Morso Squirrel 1010 is an A-rated wood burner that prioritises a wide, unobstructed view of the fire. Built from high-quality cast iron for excellent thermal mass, it retains heat long after the fire has dimmed. Unlike multi-fuel versions, the 1010 is specifically optimised for wood combustion, featuring an adjustable air control system that allows for precision management of the burn rate. Its compact dimensions make it a perfect fit for the smaller hearths typically found on traditional narrowboats, yet it remains powerful enough to serve as the primary heat source for a 40-50ft vessel.

Clean Burning and Efficiency

Equipped with the innovative Morso Air Wash System, the 1010 keeps its glass clear of soot and deposits. It is a DEFRA-exempt appliance, meaning it can be legally operated in smoke-controlled areas when burning seasoned logs. This makes it a sustainable choice for boaters who split their time between rural towpaths and urban moorings. For a bespoke finish, we can supply this stove in various custom heat-resistant colours to suit your interior design.

Professional Marine Installation

Installing a dedicated wood burner requires careful attention to flue draught and ventilation to ensure safe operation. Our OFTEC-trained engineers provide expert solid fuel boat stove installations, adhering strictly to the BS 8511:2010 safety standard. Every installation includes the necessary safety certification and uses a BSS-compliant flue kit to ensure your boat is fully prepared for its next BSS inspection.
