Leading Cast Iron Stove Manufacturer Offers Unique Scandinavian Design Cast Iron Convector With Elegant Steel Sides

Atlanta, Georgia – February 24, 2005 – Morsø, a leader in cast iron stoves, announced today at HPBA Expo 2005 the new Morsø 2040 cast iron stove that offers clean lines and a timeless Scandinavian design. Morsø 2040 is the first Scandinavian design wood-burning stove that can provide the heat output most American consumers are looking for, and it is EPA-approved for use in the United States including Washington.

Morsø 2040 Main Features

For the discriminating home owner who wants a high quality contemporary stove that will blend with his decor and taste. Morsø 2040 is an elegant stove with clean lines and a timeless Scandinavian design. The stove is a tall convector with slightly curved glass in the door that enhances the column-like design of the stove. The stove is highly efficient with simple operation and easy heat regulation.

The Morsø 2040 is a clean burning, non-catalytic wood stove, that is the perfect heat source for medium sized areas. The Morsø 2040, like all Morsø cast iron stoves has a very large glass panel without any interfering bars and a superior air wash system to keep the glass clean for an unobstructed view of the fire.

Constructed to use pre-heated primary as well as secondary air to ensure the cleanest burn possible, the Morsø 2040 also comes with single air control for ease of operation, standard rear and bottom heat shields, as well as standard heavy duty ash pan.

Cast iron is one of the best-suited materials for stoves due to its ability to absorb heat from the fire and releasing it slowly into your home long after the fire is out. On the other hand, steel has design possibilities that differ from cast iron. Morsø has exploited these different characteristics with Morsø 2040, where the entire firebox is made of cast iron, while the exterior design elements are manufactured in steel to offer the best of both worlds, and give a contemporary design flair to the exterior of a cast iron core.

“Morsø 2040 is our offering to the American consumer looking for a high-quality Scandinavian design stove,” says Peter Jessen Hansen, managing director of Morsø. “It offers the unique blend of cast iron durability with the Scandinavian simplicity, sharp edges and straight lines, which makes the Morsø 2040 a very attractive addition to Morsø’s comprehensive line of quality cast iron stoves.”
