I have an outdoor boiler that is able to burn coal or wood. It is set up to heat the house and my shop. I have always used wood as it is plentiful and free for me.
The problem now is that since the addition of my shop space, I am burning considerably more wood. In the interest of saving some time, I am debating about using Anthracite coal as a supplement to the wood. It seems to be readily available here in NY. I also think it will be easier to store and move as I can move it one ton at time. It will also free up some space under my lean to.
Anybody else here do the same thing? Anything I should know about using Coal?
Thank you for your replies in advance!!
