Sheridan Fireplace Installation, Welding Supply and Grain Help

Sheridan homeowners and farms rely on our family business for fireplace installs, stoves, welding supplies and grain drying equipment near the Fox River.


Sales and Services

Right Down Route 71

Saturday mornings around Sheridan often mean a project in the garage, a trailer that needs a new tongue welded on or a gate hinge that finally snapped. Rural acreages and hobby farms along the Fox River make this a hands-on community, and Midwest Agri-Com supplies the welding equipment, wire, electrodes and torches that keep those projects moving. Our showroom sits on Route 71 in Ottawa, so the drive from Sheridan is simple and direct. Many neighbors also come in to plan a new fireplace or swap a drafty open hearth for an efficient insert or stove before winter. Area grain growers turn to us for in-bin drying, unload equipment and elevator legs. It is all handled by one local team.


Our Service

Fireplaces, Stoves and Shop Supplies

Our crew handles fireplace sales and installation from the first sketch through the final inspection. You can choose a stone or brick look, add a wood mantel and pick up the accessories that make daily use easier. If a stove suits your home better, we carry pellet and gas models for convenience and wood or corn models for those who like to supply their own fuel, built from steel, cast iron or soapstone. Hobby welders and contractors can buy a machine, schedule a repair and pick up wire, torches and handles in one stop. For grain growers near the Fox River, we provide in-bin drying, stirring machines and unload systems with design and installation support. Midwest Agri-Com also performs restoration and repair, so you can bring back an aging fireplace or keep an older grain system productive without starting from scratch.

Is MIG or flux core welding easier for a beginner hobby welder?

Flux core is often the easiest start because it needs no gas cylinder and works outdoors in light wind. MIG with shielding gas produces cleaner welds and less spatter, which many hobbyists prefer once they gain confidence. Many machines can run both. Think about where you weld and what you build, and we can help you choose a setup.

How much clearance does a freestanding wood stove need from walls?

Think about total storage needs, how the new bin connects to existing handling equipment and if your dryer can keep up with added capacity. Site layout, drainage, truck traffic and future expansion all matter. Aeration fans, unload systems and access like bin stairs should be planned together. A design consultation helps everything work as one system.
