- Hand Fed Coal Furnace: Currently a Warm Morning 414 A. Previously had a Hot Blast 1321
- Coal Size/Type: To Be Determined
- Other Heating: propane
Just wondering what range of draft, or draw as some call it, is desirable. I'm sure there is a range that works best. What's a good starting point to shoot for? Bit coal, 2-5" in size. Furnace is an older 1300 series HotBlast.

.03 -.05 is a good spot, it gives you room on both sides of the scale.Smitty275 wrote:Just wondering what range of draft, or draw as some call it, is desirable.
