This would be a progress report. As with earlier post, the fine responders steered me in the right direction. My Mark1 has purred along for about 1 week. I am not new to coal burning as I have in the past used a VC Vigilant with the coal conversion kit. It 's the one made in1979. The Vigilant I had to tend every 7 to 9 hours. The Mark once every 12 hours. I keep the temp of the stove 375 to 400degrees. As with using Blacshak nut coal I get 40 hours per bag. Also I mix some stove size too. My manometer say .03. The RC baro does keep the exhaust temp to 150 degrees. Before it was 200degrees. Right now we are in the mist of a snow storm that as dumped so far 14 inches with the wind at 35to 45mph. The baro is working overtimed. The heat is lasting thru the night, 10pm to 7am. Thank to all of you and Happy Holidays. George :)
