Serving Illinois' City of Lights

You can heat a large older home more evenly, or finally add a fireplace to a newer one, with the right plan. Aurora stretches along both banks of the Fox River and out past I-88, mixing historic neighborhoods near downtown with sprawling subdivisions on the east and west sides. That range of housing means every hearth project looks different. Midwest Agri-Com handles fireplace sales and installation and offers wood and pellet stoves for homes of any age. Aurora's contractors, fabricators and weekend welders also rely on us for welding supplies and welding equipment sales and service. For the farms that still ring Kane County, we provide grain handling and drying equipment too. A free in-store estimate at our Ottawa showroom is the easy first step.


Our Service

Hearth Design and Welding Equipment Support

You get a fireplace that suits your room and your routine. We plan and install hearths finished in brick, cultured stone or masonry, often topped with a wood mantel, and we supply matching tools and accessories. If you want efficient heat without a full fireplace, choose a gas, pellet, corn or wood stove built from steel, soapstone or cast iron. Contractors and hobbyists find a full welding counter stocked with wire, electrodes, filler rods, torches, fuel kits and plasma cutters, along with machine sales and repair service. Our grain work covers bin stairs, stirring machines, elevator legs, unload systems and in-bin drying for nearby farms. Older homes near downtown often need a liner or masonry restoration before a new insert goes in, and we handle that work too. Inspection and maintenance services keep it all working safely.

Why Aurora Homeowners Work With Us

You get personalized expert consultations that start with your house, your venting options and how you want the room to feel. From there, our experienced sales team narrows the choices to stoves and fireplaces that make sense for your space. Free in-store estimates mean you see real costs before committing. Our family has been serving customers since 1975, so you are working with a business built on repeat customers and referrals, not quick sales. Competitive pricing on quality products applies across the store, from a spool of MIG wire to a soapstone stove. Professional service follows through with installation, inspection and maintenance. In a city as big as Aurora, that kind of personal attention is worth the drive out to Ottawa.

Is a gas fireplace or a wood-burning fireplace better for a suburban home?

Gas suits you if you want heat at the flip of a switch, steady output and very little cleanup, and it can often vent through a wall instead of a full chimney. Wood rewards you with an open flame, the smell of a real fire and heat that keeps glowing from the coals, but it asks for a sound chimney, dry firewood and routine sweeping. Think about how often you will actually light it.

What is the difference between flux-core and solid welding wire?

A stirring machine mixes grain as it dries, breaking up layers so air moves evenly through the bin. That reduces over-dried grain at the bottom and wet grain at the top, which helps protect quality and test weight. Stirring also lets you fill bins deeper and dry more bushels with the same fans and heaters.
