American Harvest Pellet Stoves

American Harvest Pellet Stoves are produced by the US Stoves Company, located in South Pittsburgh, Tennessee. When talking about American Harvest pellets stoves, people usually mean one particular module, which is American Harvest Multi-Fuel Stove, model #6039.

American Harvest Pellet Stoves can be characterized as solid heating devices built to withstand even the coldest climates with maximum life expectancy. The stove is a multi-fuel device and can burn wood pellets, corn, or any other bio-fuel, including cherry and olive pits, soy beans, processed silage, and biomass fuel grain. The American Harvest has a specious hopper, capable of holding up to 60 pounds of dried corn. The stove can produce up to 52,000 BTUs, which is enough to heat up the area of 1,300 square feet.

More advanced features of American Harvest pellet stoves include an exhaust blower for negative draft that pulls products of burning in the flue through and out, hence no smoke spillage. Another blower is for automatic circulation of warm air, and it's a 200 CFM device. The stove is equipped with a heat controller with nine settings that will allow adjusting the heat exactly to your needs. A new digital control board with a built-in diagnostics and LED screen will ease the operation and a large ash pan should make cleaning much more tolerable and simple.

With all advantages listed above, American Harvest pellet stoves should be a breeze to operate and should be working magic to heating your house and providing you with warm and cosy nights during cold winters. Yet before buying any stove of the American Harvest range, you should probably know that this particular model, American Harvest 6039, has both positive and negative feedbacks from people who bought and used them. Some are saying that controls are not fine enough to adjust the heat, some are not happy with cleaning of the stove, and some think that the smoke still finds its way out even with a negative draft exhaust blower. And as there are more than just a handful of negative feedbacks we'd like to call to your attention and pay extra caution when buying one of the American Harvest pellet stoves.

Another hint in using American Harvest pellet stoves is for the bio-mass fuel, and corn in particular – it must be really dry, just about 12% of moisture or it will just not work fine. One thing you can do to increase dryness is to mix your corn with wood pellets. To make your corn burn completely, you can add some chicken scratch (or oyster shells) – it should eliminate all clinkers.
