One of the best features is the cost. It is a lot cheaper than having to stock wood and cheaper than paying for gas to heat your home. It really is a more environmentally friendly option. The downside to the corn stove is that it does require electric power, so if you have a power outage you can not use the corn burning stove. One thing I did not know at first is that you can purchase a 24hour backup battery which is rechargeable. just for such an occasion.
In addition there are a few things that you need to keep in mind when using a corn burning stove. When you first begin to use it you will need to check and make sure that the auger is dropping the appropriate amount of corn into the box. Also if some type of dirt gets caught in the auger your fire will go out and you will have to do the process all over again. You will also need to know the grade of corn you are purchase. You will want clean, good quality corn. When you first purchase the corn you will want to have at least three months worth. You can tell the company this when they first take your order and they should have no problem giving you the right amount.
If you are interested in purchasing one there are several companies that sell them. One company is the Golden Grain Corn Stove Company.
They have several corn burning stove models that you can choose from that range from 13,000 to 40,000 BTU’s. For pricing information you can contact the company. Or you can look up a dealer near you on their website listed above. Another company that sells corn burning stoves is the Northern Tool & Equipment company which sells corn burning stoves for about $1000.00. You can purchase them online or you can find a store near you. Usually when you purchase the corn burning stove they will also tell you where you can order the corn from.
The bottom line is that these corn burning stoves are great to have in any home. If you are looking to save on heating costs during the winter months, or you want something that is more environmentally friendly this is it.
