yes that is true, the coaling phase does not have the fire part into the riser which gives out a lot of heat into the bell, the coal however will keep heating up the firebox which will radiate heat through after the fire is gone. This form of thermal radiation is in a certain spectrum (I am still learning) which are passing through the walls therefore is not necessary to be directly into the room. I found that my bell heats and heats and then at some point, a treshold point, starts radiating beautifully, my firebox is still very wam in the morning.

I see that if I burn reasonable quality wood there is no more soot except for the door and near the door where flames and do not get, the rest is clean. I did a gasification experiment with an aluminum pot introduced into the firebox and it melted although I placed it toward the entrance near the door where there was a little piece of wood. I initiall believed the pot was steel but it was pretty thick. Also I placed copper in the same spot and it got red and soft
