outdoor furnaces

[Oleozz]

I live in central Pa. and have a Keystoker hot water boiler, they are made in Schuylkill Haven. Mine is in the basement and is a bit dusty but I have a friend that also has a Keystoker and his is in a small shed and he runs pipes into the house so no mess for him. Rice coal is $175 a ton, takes me about 7 ton a year to heat the house and our domestic hot water. If we didn't live in a big ole drafty stone house we probably could get buy with 4-5 tons per year.

One site I found.

Not familiar with them, can't comment.

Royall Indoor wood boilers

Sig,

I looked really hard at the Royall. They didn't offer the oil backup system then ( they might now however) they seemed like a nice boiler. They are not a stoker though, they burn bituminous coal, which is what I burn.
