Blaschak Rice in KA-6

Just ordered a KA-6, now for the fuel. After reviewing the posts it seams like a lot of folks like Superior over Blaschak. I also read that Superior doesn’t sell in bags. I have tried to find bulk sales in the Erie PA area without any luck. Was curious about peoples experiences with Blaschak rice for the KA-6. I can get it locally bagged for $248 ton.

I my self ordered a KA-6 two weeks ago. Keystoker said 12 weeks for delivery I live in Edinboro Pa. I bought Blaschak bagged rice in meadville at bylers plumbing & heating for $241.61 a ton.Weavers Harman stoves in erie gave me a price on bulk rice coal $208 a ton and $250 a ton for bagged.Im going with bagged this year to see how much I use.My friend uses Baschak bagged rice coal and loves it no problems.If you find bulk Blaschak please post were.Looking for other places to get bulkfor next year.

hi sbarbour,better plan on atleast 4 ton for season depending on house size/temp blazchak seems to be a favorite of many, but pricey!if you can handle it look at bulk coal delivery.i got 22 ton set for 5-6 years used 4 ton in koker last year 0 gal.oil

I burned some blaschack in my old KA4 . No problems . Burned great . Dave

Hi stokin-railroad,I have 4 ton bought.My house is a 17 year old ranch 2040 sq ft. I had a out side wood stove for 13 years used to much wood running out of woods to cut in. So I thought I would try coal. I have oil back up but don't want to use it $$$$$$$

This is great info. I work in Meadville and had no idea there was a supplier there. Weavers is the price that I quoted in the post. I should have asked about bulk. I am of the same thought as you. Want to see how much I use and quality of coal before I go with bulk. I actually live in Cambridge Springs (Erie as a known city), so we may be able to work together for bulk discounts down the road. Im calling Bylers in the AM and locking in three pallets. Who did you get your boiler from?

I used Blaschak last year in my KA6 and all I can say is LOVED IT !!!! getting around 10tons for this year !!!

Love in Christ

Hi ronw I called keystoker for a dealer in my area and they gave me the one in kingsville Oh. I called him and got a price on a KA-6. And with diesel at $4.85 gal I would like to find a dealer closer to me.Stoped at country harth on RT198 saegertown by lazer tool on the bend and asked if he sold coal boilers and he said he just started to handle keystoker and did not know a thing about theme.I told him what I knew from this forum. He said he would give me a good deal on it if I would tell pepole about it and be willing to show it to pepole sense this is the first one he had sold. After he told me the price I had no problem with showing pepole the boiler for him. He was $650.00 cheaper and only 5 miles away. I live in venango township on center road.I will send you a private messages.
