The performance of your pellet appliance is greatly affected by the type and
quality of wood pellets burned. As the heat output of various brands of pellets
differs, so will the performance and heat output of your appliance.
We recommend the use of screened pellet fuel in order to
reduce the amount of fines your stove will have to cope with.
PELLET QUALITY
WOODWOOD
PELLET FUEL
Your pellet stove is designed to burn APFI/FFI ‘Premium’
or ‘Standard’ quality wood pellets. Pellets that are soft
contain excessive amounts of loose sawdust, have been
or are wet, and produce clinkers or heavy ash will result
in reduced performance and may actually cause the
fire to go out.
PELLET CONSUMPTION
Fuel consumption will vary somewhat between fuel brands and stoves. The following ‘rough
guide’ to pellet usage may be useful in assessing your stove’s operation, for ordering fuel
and in providing information to your authorized pellet stove dealer.
FACTORS AFFECTING PELLET FEED RATES
Generally, the smaller, harder and cleaner (free from fines) the pellets are, the faster they will
feed at a given setting and vice versa.
The extremes in pellet size and quality can cause several hours of difference in burn time for a
40 lb bag of pellets.
Heat production is directly related to the pounds of fuel burned per hour. As fuel consumption
goes down so will heat output and vice versa.
Pellet feed rate, at the same fuel settings, may vary greatly from brand to brand and may vary
somewhat from batch to batch within the same brand.
