Where did the wood pellets come from? I burn 10,000 lbs per winter to heat my home.
I have done this for more than a decade. About 60% the cost of furnace oil.
Best here are SPF from Premium Pellet. Dougfir costs more for very little heat improvement.
I ask as Canada is a major source for pellets in Europe (and the UK?)
They have to be kept ultra dry. Once uncovered, even the bagged stock will pick up enough room humidity
that they burn poorly when 6 months old. I predict you will be disappointed if the pellet bag is not sealed tight
between uses. Damp, their fuel value is rubbish but still OK for the cat.
Pinnacle Pellet tried to scam everybody here 2-3 winters ago by selling pellet fuel stock with 5% sand.
Ash weights shot up. Mix with water and the sand settled out! I knew something was wrong with the
ash weight, first time I cleaned the stove. By then, big users were on the warpath.
I burned a ton then we all went back to Premium brand.
