Not everyone knows that a country house needs to be heated only with coal.

Smart people use coal for convenience reasons, they do not need to constantly throw them like wood. You can take an ordinary bucket of coal, fall asleep once before going to bed and it will be comfortable and warm in the house until you wake up.
Remembering my grandfather, who all his long life stoked his stove at home with coal, despite the fact that his stove was made of ordinary bricks.
During normal winters, the coal boiler was usually heated continuously for a week, throwing up and raking out ash, stopped once a week and cleaned completely, Consumption, compared to a cyclic furnace, almost the same, more comfort, no big fluctuations temperature.
You can burn out from CO by heating with wood, because they begin to close the chimney earlier than necessary. When coal is fired, no one closes the chimney, and CO is formed several times less during coal combustion.
Honestly, I have not heard that someone got crazy with coal, but with firewood all the time. I don't want to get into chemistry now, but as far as I know it, CO is obtained by burning hydrocarbons with a lack of oxygen, which includes cellulose, that is, firewood.
And from coal, when it burns, either CO2 is obtained or coal remains. No, I certainly understand that there are impurities in coal too, and when they burn, they release CO, but at times less.
There are of course wood-fired pyrolysis boilers. The whole trouble with pyrolysis boilers is that due to the low temperature at the outlet to the chimney and from the lack of oxygen, soot and tar are deposited on the chimney much faster than with a conventional furnace.
And hence: the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning increases and the ignition of soot and tar in the chimney with the release of burning pieces of soot from the chimney onto the roof. For safety and your own peace of mind, pyrolysis boilers should be installed in a separate boiler room, otherwise it's like lighting matches next to an open barrel of gasoline.
