I looked at the coal stoves But I like the auto start in the pellet stoves better. Thanks for your valuable input.

I saw that too... valiant attempt to save your backside[/q Boy,There is just no fooling U.
(broken link removed to http://www.readingstove.com/coal-heating-efficiency/) Look at the comparative costs per million btu's for the same cost of pellets and coal
This one also shows how anyone near even reasonably priced coal should look long and hard at coal. It is even easy to start a coal stoker now with special starting sticks. They have come a long way since I had one.

Before I purchased a pellet stove I would use 2-4 cords a season, after a pellet stove 1 1/2-2 tons of pellet and use the wood burner as a backup for really cold nights. My hose is a 4" wall cape cod and heat the downstairs about 1500 sq. feet. Hope this helps and welcome
Hello Group. I went to my Harmon dealer store today and gave him the pics of my current set up of my stove and chimney set up. He said I should use my current set up, because if I had a power problem it would have a good draft to get rid of smoke. I like this method because I do not have to cut a new hole in my house and my old wood stove chimney is still in good shape. He sold me every thing I needed to make this change happen this weekend. The temps this weekend in Erie is going to be cold, so it is a perfect time to check out my new stove . WOO WHO/////////////
