Traeger GBU 130 Furnace. This is a complete whole house furnace, it is adjustable output from 75,000 btu to 135,000 btu. This item is was used one burning season, this item is in very good and almost new condition. It comes with the Blower motor that is three speed and Two 330 Gallon Totes to store the corn/ pellets in to keep outside, This also includes A corn vacuum system that allows you to hook up a shopvac to it and suck the corn in from outside and empty it into the hopper along with cleaning the fines out of the corn or pellets. This was purchased new from a dealer in Van Wert and was used only for last winter... The only reason I am selling it is because I am moving and the new house has a furnace in already. You will not be disappointed in this item.. Asking $6000.00 O.B.O.

With just the two plugs open there didn't seem like there was enough fuel towards the end of the cycle to reignite. By opening up the third cup and reducing it with a 3/8" shim allowed just enough fuel for the last part of the pilot cycle.

Played with the air ratio also, but to my surprise when I reduced the amount to the fan it actually started to make the fan spin faster, causing more pressure, seemed to act like a turbine. when opened back up it allowed the fan to come down to a slower overall speed, but did increase the volume of air. Right now it is set @ about half...

Well I have switched my burn cycle to 16 min and using about a 50/50 mixture. Needed to remove the factory plug that was installed into feeder cup and put a 3/8" plug into that hole. I left the other two cups fully open and adjusted my air mixture accordingly. The unit seemed to do well despite the double time in between pilot cycles. Saves quite a bit of fuel in the process too!

I have added a quarter inch shim to the secondary feed cup. The third cup was plugged from the factory. I have tried a pellet/corn mixture and may seem to work well for my situation seems to have less smoke than the corn. Probably due to the lack of heat carried in the actual firepot. I also notice that the corn is actually starting to molten into a blob vs burning. If I do a corn/pellet mixture do you think it would be beneficial to remove the shim and up the pilot cycle time to 16min?

I did have an outdoor wood boiler for years and have moved and switched to corn for several reasons. This site has really helped me get a good handle on corn burning I really appreciate everyones help. Will post pics of my setup soon..
Thanks again

Has anyone played with the timer pilot settin on a Gbu130? I am burning straight corn and I have it set on the 8min cycle time.. I did try the 16 min cycle, but as most of you probably know the pilot will not stay lit in between cycles unless there is a call for heat from the thermostat. My unit mainly runs on pilot cycle most of the time anyway, I have my thermostat set @ 70, but the pilot is generally enough to heat my house easily. Is the 16min used for pellet burning?
This is my first experience with corn any help would be appreciated.. Thanks

I had a mixture of corn and pellets when I ran into the coupler problem? Maybe pellets are jamming up causing a problem? Until then I was running straight corn and had no problems

I have a gbu130, this is my first year using the unit and I had to replace the love joy coupling with only about 1 month of use. The original coupling broke the ears off of it, pulled it apart and didn't find anything jammed in the feeder cup. I am currently using a cornvac to clean the corn along with screen as it is being put into my hopper. Not sure if some corn just got jammed into the opening of
where the corn enters the feeder cup? Fixed it and got it back up and running no problem so far!
