I burned out of my first bin of coal. It was a little bin. Held 1 1/4 ton of coal. That coal lasted me from beggining of February to April. And from beginning of October to the first week of December. Overall about 130 days for a cost of approximately $275. In that same time frame I would've used about a bag of wood pellets per day at a cost of around $700. I'm anticipating my yearly coal useage around $700 / 3 ton.
All I can say is I'm warm and happy and coal is the way to go!

That’s awesome!!!! My nasty oil furnace doesn’t kick on as much as it used too for heat. And that’s with a small coal stove ( cranking )
