Why Heat with Coal?
Very inexpensive
You may be surprised to learn coal is quite easy to manage and use,
that's one of the benefits. There's two distinct types of units, stokers
and hand fired stove. Stokers are the most convenient type because these
are automatic. They are not much different than any conventional heating
system, they are thermostatically controlled. Hand fired units are
quite popular too and would be more like using a wood stove and requires
manual adjustments. Each has their advantages and disadvantages.
The stokers internally pretty much haven't changed in years, they are
time tested designs that work. If you're familiar with a pellet stove
these would be similar to them except in production for much longer.
Some designs have been around for more than half a century.
