Corn Burning Boiler unit
Well, winter is coming upon us, quicker than we'll know and so will
the rising heating costs. This particular method intrigued me and
you might be interested as well. Read on.....
The average price for corn from Illinois, as of Sept 13, 2005 was
$1.825/Bushel, so say we use the max of the range of fuel to
heat this season (quoted in the brochure), 150 bushels, then
our corn cost would be around $273.75 for the whole winter.....now
the unit does require some power to run the auger and fan - electricity,
and I am not sure how much. The unit (used) plus installation for
one family was $2100, and they will need to get a trailer to haul
and store corn in in the garage - estimate: $500.00
Time will tell how much it lowers the heating bills of past.
This man has a corn-burning Boiler unit in his large old house in
WI....here is his website:
