In Reply to: O/T Heating With Coal posted by 37 chief on December 22, 2007 at 14:02:49:

Hi 37 chief
Well i live nw of why not Minot and i still got an old hand fired coal furnace in the basement that was installed when the house was built.,,Im probably the last guy out here to still use a HAND FIRED furnace.
I heat with electric baseboards in the spring and fall but i like my coal when it gets below o and thats when the coal burns the best.
Most of the people that use coal have stockers but i get buy as the furnace is good sized and has a automatic damper and i only service about twice a day and if we are gone for the day the baseboards kick in.
as far as price gos its not that great of a savings,,,About $200.00 or more a year and i have my own truck to haul it and live ware i can easily dispose of the ashes but when for like bob says when its 30 below and windy out side im sitting in my living room nice and comp-fee at 85 i like it lots. :o)
As far as the dust is concerned yes our basement is not by any means squeaky clean but we keep the filters changed often in the forced air and the natural draft with the hand fed is WAAAAAAY cleaner than a stoker but not as reliable.
And also im not sure how much more i pay for my house insurance. (not a lot more) But the insurance company's dont really like solid fuel heating systems.
