Why should you have to put up with products that don't deliver what is promised?
What was needed in the Corn Stove industry was a new design that actually burns the corn thoroughly. With incomplete burning you get an over abundance of black sooty ash and not as much heat. This produces large amounts of coal black ash which can easily build up to be a problem, plugging up the stove, choking the combustion air, filling the exhaust pipe, and covering the side of your house with black soot. This dirty burning requires a need for a total shutdown cleaning as much as twice a week.
Several years ago the Research and Development Department at Even Temp Inc. were told, "Fix what's wrong with corn stoves." They took three years and produced, "The Lancaster." This corn stove is the front runner in an exciting line of Corn Stoves that work.
SURE FIRE Technology The St Croix Secret: why they work.
What makes us stand out in the crowd? High Temperature Burning! This is accomplished with a unique pressurized vacuum sealed air flow design which enables higher burning temperatures, increases heat output, decreases ash buildup, and allows the Corn Stove to burn more reliably. This pressurized system delivers more air with more oxygen to the fire chamber for a hotter more efficient fire. Also the St Croix Corn Stove technology does not stir the fire in the firebox to attempt to remove ash. Stirring lowers the burn temperature creating inefficient burning and the need for a burn enhancer to raise the temperature back up (oyster shells or special pellet additives)
The St Croix method needs no additives or burn enhancers as we burn on top of the buildup or clinker. This allows the clinker to become your friend instead of your enemy. The clinker becomes a red hot, heat increasing, high temperature source, allowing a more complete combustion which gets more heat out of each kernel and less ash to clean out of the stove. This complete combustion burns the corn down to the minerals, which are white. This eliminates the need to continuously shut down the stove for cleanout. In a week of burning, instead of 2-3 gallons of black sooty ash with high carbon content as high as 75%, you get about 4-5 little bricks that are mostly white with carbon content most times under 5%! You can usually fit them in a metal container smaller than the size of an ice cream pail.
The clinker or mineral buildup is removed simply by moving two levers about every other day. The unique Continuous Fire Lever System allows you to lose the buildup but keep the fire. The Control Board is Digital with more features than an analog board.
The proof of efficiency is in the ash, our ash is mostly white, while the ash of incomplete combustion is mostly black!
The Best Working most complete Corn Stove Line in America
Back a few years ago the mini corn stove, The Lancaster was such a success that the same stove was put inside a bigger shell called the Auburn. The Auburn features a 90 LB hopper and a bigger ash pan, and was an instant hit in the Corn Stove market. It is being called "The New Champion." No other corn stove is as popular.
Now Even Temp is about to do it again with the release of "The Greenfield." It is the first cast iron corn stove on the market.
Benefits of the New SURE FIRE Technology!
Beauty and elegance along with the SURE FIRE Technology of the St Croix Corn Stoves, The Greenfield is sure to please!
