Can I burn coal and wood at the same time?

It is not recommended to burn both coal and wood simultaneously. The moisture which can be contained in wood together with the sulfuric acid produced when burning coal can create a very acidic solution which can erode its way through even the toughest liners over time.

As wood requires air from above and coal requires air from below, the necessary conditions needed to efficiently burn wood differ dramatically to that of coal, making any simultaneous burning very inefficient and wasting the potential energy your fuel may provide.
