I bought a 100000 btu hot air furnace last year from a place in michigan. The guy who makes them seems to be very knowledgable and I love the furnace. It seems to burn quite a few types of fuel just fine. I mainly burn shelled corn but have also used oats, wood pellets, and cherry pits with no problems. I heat a 100+ year old farm house in NY weather and have been very pleased. I almost couldn't wait to fire it up again this fall. Here is the link:

Harman makes the model 45 direct vent no chimmney model with thermostat control and auto ignition. Burns grain and wood pellets.

Put one in for the folks last fall, and my brother liked it so much he put one in a couple weeks later, and I finally put one in this fall, as for the corn get it as dry as you can, at least close to 11% if you can, some of them really have problems burning it when you get clost to 17%, there are places that sell what they call a "clean burn addative" not the oyster shell stuff and it sure seams to make a big difference, the oyster shell stuff just seams to be a big nothing we all got ours from this company >Link

I didn"t know they were made _without_ a blower?

Are you looking for a pretty one to set in the livingroom & throw a little heat, or an beefy unit to put in the basement & work for years? Water or air?

There sure seem to be a lot of them out there. Cleaning up clinkers seems to be the big maintenence issue, I"d look to that area for ease of use.

yup Paul, I don't think I have seen one without a blower either, can't see that one without a blower would be much good..

I sure don't need pretty I need heat! If I can find one to tie into hot water heat it would be great. If not the more beef the better no frills! Theres one in northern catalog they don't say any thing about a blower. thanks Stu

Year-a-Round corp (located 30 miles from me, have a web site) makes several air & water models. I have no experience with them, other than toured their factory a year ago. They would be an outdoor or in a shed model, not approved for in the house I believe.

Seen a few other water models, don't remember them off hand tho.

I believe the oil in corn kinda smokes a lot, unless there is good airflow through the burn area from a fan, it doesn't burn very well. My understanding anyhow.

Agreed on the clinker issue- big problem with early stoves- they could 'weld' the clinkers to the firebox. Later ones had ceramic or other material for the box, fewer problems, easier cleaning and maintenance.
