How To Save Coal In The Home Furnace
Furnace experts say doubling heat while halving coal use is possible by following simple rules. Clean the furnace yearly with hard coal or coke, clean smoke pipes, keep pipes asbestos covered, and drain the ash pit to ensure full draft. Fill the water pan daily to raise humidity and improve warmth. For soft coal, clean the system twice yearly to prevent soot buildup that reduces heating. Check drafts before lighting, keep the fire bowl level, shake the furnace twice daily, and avoid banking fires at night to prevent loss of heat and fuel.
