Coal pellet stove Keystone mfg company Pennsylvania Keystoker rice coal stove

Description

Keystone brand made in
Pennsylvania.  Keystoker model.  Burns rice coal(small pieces).  I used it for several years but switched to wood pellets.   This coal stove is self-feeding.  Hopper takes about 50 lbs  when full.  Usually can be a 24 hour burn but I would run it non stop for two weeks, clean (a lot of internal vacuuming) and then back to start up. You have to appreciate coal to use this stove. It works well but it is not as user friendly as wood.  As stated before it burns rice coal.  Coal can start a little harder than wood but once in operation just goes and goes. It forms an orange/blue glow rather than the white flames of a wood pellet. Ash bucket can be dumped while in operation.  (The ash is great for slippery surfaces in the winter.)
Very heavy.  has a convection fan but needs a new speed control, goes fast only.   I usually just used it as radiant heat.  Thermostat "finger" regulates on/off of the self feed. Basically this is an in-room coal furnace.   Sold as is.  Thank you.
PS   Comes with about  200 pounds of bagged rice coal if desired.
