The S260 coal stoker boiler is perfect for larger residential homes and small commercial buildings. It comes standard with a belt-drive fan. Auto-feed options are available.
Designed to burn Pea or Buckwheat-sized Anthracite coal, each Coal Gun unit ensures minimal labor, nominal expense, maximum fuel efficiency, and marathon burn time.
Though designed primarily for use with hydronic boiler systems, the Coal Gun can be adapted to work with forced hot air systems or steam heating applications.
Coal Gun boiler units are made to be the last boiler you’ll ever buy and require only minimal seasonal maintenance. Built for lifetime durability, many of our units are into their fourth decade of operation.
In addition to the standard 20-year warranty on the vessel, the burn grate in every S260 Coal Gun is covered by an additional lifetime warranty.
Our Coal Gun boilers are some of the most durable heating units available. AHS’s commitment to quality leads to a long boiler life and years of hassle-free operation. The bottom line is that a quality-manufactured AHS Coal Gun will save you time and money in your heating application.
Standard equipment includes an insulated boiler jacket, totally enclosed motor and drive systems, primary and backup aquastat thermostats, thermo ash-monitoring control, pressure relief valve, ash pan, and square hopper with lid.

Oil Back-up
The S130 is capable of being fitted with an oil burner. The burner is designed to fire into the Coal Gun’s efficient heat exchanger. This eliminates the need of a second appliance and all the plumbing that comes with it. The Oil Back-up for the S130 comes standard as a manual switch-over. With this option if you ever run out of coal or plan an extended vacation you will be ready!
Extended Base
The Extended Base upgrade for the S130 gives it an extra-large ash pan that is 3x bigger than the standard ash pan, which greatly extends the time period between emptying. It also makes the ash pan accessible to front-end loaders making dumping the ash hands-free.
Domestic Coil
This Domestic Coil features a 100° F rise at 5 gallons per minute, 50° water inlet temperature, and 65 PSI water pressure. It is threaded into a 4 IN NPT threaded fitting provided on the boiler for this purpose.
