now its down in the low 20's and teens at night and have the stove cranked up pretty good the coal is doing really well no trouble at all keeping the house 80 degrees,i was having trouble with it when it just had to idle along wants to soot up and clinkers.so I just leave her cranked up and if 80 or which it has been it is what it is open windows and doors

Still burning the coalberg?

does it clinker (the ash melts and clogs the grates with iron) or you mean it melts together when it's burning slowly and "bridges" or fuses up into coke?

is that lump or stoker coal or run-of-mine ?

how much more is the eastern KY coal?

clinkers at low temps, say running around 200 to 300 degrees plus soots up really bad. now running at 400 to 500 very little trouble so I just run her between 400 and 500 degrees
