That explains a lot. Yer gonna use a significant amount heating three levels exclusively with coal, no matter what appliance you choose. 80 pounds with temps below 20 degrees outside seems very reasonable to me in this situation.

Glad to hear it. Thanks for the feedback. Pretty soon you will be saying "month 5 non-stop" instead of "day 5". :clap:
