FUEL SPECIFICATIONS—SHELLED CORN

The performance of your multi-fuel burning appliance is greatly affected by the type, quality, moisture content and consistency of the shelled corn burned. As the heat output of various quality corn differ, so will the performance and heat output of your appliance.

CORN QUALITY

Your Glow Boy Series appliance, with its “Super Grate”, is designed to

burn only dry, clean, quality shelled corn, up to a 50/50 mixture with wood pellets Cleaning intervals will vary in time from a low of 8 hours to as

much as 30 hours of more depending on such factors as; fuel feed rate, hybrid of corn being used, cleanliness, and dryness of fuel, etc.

Shelled Corn must be 14% or lower in moisture. Corn over 14% moisture will not burn.

NOTE: The lower the moisture content the better the burn and higher the heat output.

Problems relating to burning dirty, high moisture corn are not covered under warranty.

Corn must be screened to make sure it is free of dirt and other debris such as husks, large pieces of cob or other foreign matter. The presence of any of the mentioned items may cause auger jams, inconsistent feed and will result in poor combustion or the fire going out. Damage caused by dirty corn

and other foreign objects are not covered under warranty.

DO NOT BURN “TREATED” SEED CORN IN YOUR STOVE. Seed corn is treated with chemical pesticides that are harmful if swallowed; therefore, seed corn is dangerous to have in the house, especially where children can access it. Burning treated seed corn in your heater will void the warranty and will destroy the exhaust system on the unit.

Do not carry your corn supply over into the next heating season, unless properly stored. If you do decide to carry it over, make sure to check the corn for proper moisture content.

FACTORS EFFECTING FEED RATES

Generally, the smaller and cleaner (free from fine dust and debris) the corn is, the faster it will feed at a given setting and visa versa. The extremes in corn size, moisture and quality can cause several hours difference in burning time for a hopper full of fuel. Heat production is directly related to the pounds of fuel burned per hour and moisture content of the fuel. As fuel consumption goes down so will heat output and visa versa. It is also important to vacuum out your hopper once to twice a month to assure trouble free auguring of the corn.

CORN DUST OR FINES

FINES in corn are dust and pieces of corn shells, cobs, or husks, and are the results of the corn breaking down from handling, transporting and/or storage. Fines adversely affect the operation and heat production of a corn shop and home heater and greatly increase the require-ments for daily and periodic cleaning. Fines cause fuel to feed slower thus reduc-ing the amount of heat produced at any given heat control setting.

STORAGE

STORE corn in a tight container or use other methods to ensure they do not become rain soaked or absorb moisture from damp or wet floors. This will also help to prevent rodents from becoming a problem. Do not store corn within the stove installation clearances or within the space required for clinker removal.

NOTE: It is much easier to remove fines from the fuel before it is placed in the stove than it is to service your stove for a plugged hopper, jammed auger and plugged exhaust system. Pellets, Corn or Wheat with excessive dust or fines may be screened to remove most of the fines. Screeners using a 3/16” mesh screen may be built or purchased from most dealers.
