I have a combination Wood and Coal burning fireplace insert, there are 2 sets of grates for the bottom of the firebox. One set (2 pieces)is a has multiple "vent holes" and sit in a larger opening in the floor over the clean out. The second set ( 2 Pieces) are just a plate the covers the openings for the other set. I assume one is designed for wood and the other is for coal. Can anyone provide guidance? Thanks

The one with the holes is probably set up for coal. You need your combustion air to come up through the coal bed for it to burn properly.
