Section 1: Coal Heater Description
A. E.P.A. Compliance Status:
This manual describes the installation and operation of the Reading Stove
Company Pine HF-75 Coal Stove. This heater is exempt from U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s
particulate emissions standard and complies with Federal Regulations 40 C.F.R. 60.
This heater is only for burning anthracite coal. Use of any other solid fuel except for coal ignition purposes is a
violation of federal law.
Tamper Warning: Modification of this heater from its original design and structure may be a violation of federal
law and will void the warranty.
Fuel Selection: This heater is designed to burn Premium Reading Anthracite Company Chestnut or Pea-Sized
Coal. Coal that is less than ½” diameter will fall through the grate openings.
Note: Pea-size passes over 9/16”
and through 13/16”; Nut-size passes over 13/16” and through 1 5/8”.
Basket: The sidewalls and back of the coal combustion chamber are constructed of durable fire-brick and
supported with cast-iron liners. The floor of the coal combustion chamber is made of a heavy-duty cast-iron
shaker grate. All of these components may be easily removed through the loading doors.
The combustion air is heated as it runs through cast-iron grate system of the heater and upward to the steel baffles.
The air simultaneously cools the front panels of the coal combustion chamber before it is directed under the grate.
The grate does not overheat, because the combustion air continuously cools it. The same principle is applied to the
front wall of the coal basket, which is constructed of steel, and 1400ºF glass-ceramic.
