The Morso Squirrel 1412 is the quintessential cast-iron boat stove, perfectly combining traditional Danish aesthetics with modern clean-burn technology. With its robust 5.3kW output and compact dimensions, it remains one of the most popular choices for narrowboats and yachts across the UK inland waterways.


Morso Squirrel 1412: Traditional Design, Modern Performance

The Morso Squirrel 1412 is an A-rated multi-fuel stove that offers exceptional durability and heat retention thanks to its high-grade cast-iron construction. It features the iconic squirrel relief design on its side plates, a hallmark of Morso’s 160-year heritage. Despite its traditional appearance, the 1412 is a highly efficient appliance equipped with an advanced Air Wash system that keeps the glass clean, providing an unobstructed view of the fire. As a DEFRA-exempt stove, it is legally permitted for use in smoke-controlled areas, making it an ideal choice for urban moorings.

Versatility and Multi-Fuel Efficiency

Designed to burn both seasoned wood and smokeless fuels, the Morso 1412 features a convenient riddling grate system for easy ash removal. Its 5.3kW heat output is powerful enough to comfortably heat larger boat cabins or widebeams, while its efficient combustion cycle ensures you get the maximum warmth from your fuel. For owners looking to personalize their vessel, the stove can be custom-painted in a range of heat-resistant colors to complement the interior décor.
