The Pelpro Corn Stove

The Pelpro Corn Stove is derived from the Pelpro Home Heater 120, it is large, square and designed for functionality together with low price. With its generous hopper size, a burn time of up to sixty hours is possible.

This stove is rated to heat an area of 2,000 square feet and can generate 50,000 btu. per hour. There is no ash pan. See comments below.

Corn ignites at a high temperature, and with this stove there is no automatic ignition system. A handful of wood pellets mixed with starter gel must be placed in the grate and the fire started by hand. Because of this, thermostatic on/off mode is not possible.
