Sales and Services
Serving the Putnam County Seat
Hennepin homes and farms need dependable heat and equipment through long river valley winters. As the county seat of Putnam County, the smallest county in Illinois by area, your town sits right on the Illinois River with farm ground rising on the bluffs around it. Route 71 connects you straight to our Ottawa showroom, so getting expert help is a simple drive east. Family owned since 1975, Midwest Agri-Com handles hearth design and fireplace installs, pellet and wood stove sales, drying and handling systems for grain, and welders along with the supplies that keep them running. You can plan a new hearth for a river home, upgrade bin systems for the harvest ahead or replace a worn-out welder in one visit. We keep the advice practical and the follow-through steady.
Our Service
Hearth, Harvest and Repair Expertise
River valley homes need hearths and stoves that handle damp air, cold drafts and long burn seasons. We design, construct and restore fireplaces using masonry, brick, cultured stone and wood mantels, and we supply tools and accessories to round out the space. Our stoves come in cast iron, soapstone and steel, with wood, pellet, gas and corn fuel options to suit how you heat. Inspection and maintenance keep each installation safe. Farms on the bluffs around town count on us for grain handling, in-bin drying, elevator legs, unload systems, stirring machines and bin stairs, with design and repair from the same crew. Shop work rounds things out with welding machine sales and service plus torches, fuel kits, plasma cutters, rods, electrodes, handles and spools of wire for every kind of repair.

your questions answered
Find answers about our products and services.
Do I need an inspection before using an older fireplace again?
Yes, an inspection is a smart first step if a fireplace has sat unused or you just bought an older home. Cracked flue tiles, missing caps, animal nests and creosote buildup can all create fire or smoke hazards. An inspection tells you if simple cleaning, repairs or a new liner is needed before you light the first fire.
What should I check on my grain dryer before harvest starts?
A wood stove heats a cabin quickly, works without electricity and burns a fuel you can often gather locally. Choose a size that matches the cabin so it does not overheat small rooms, and plan for a proper chimney and floor protection. Damp river air makes dry firewood storage important. We help you size and install the right stove.
