Some Things to Consider when Selecting Wood Pellets. Quality and consistency are more important than whether pellets are made from hardwoods or softwoods. Look for pellets with higher energy content (BTU’s/lb.) because they burn hotter. Look for numbers around 8,600 BTU/lb. Low ash content means less maintenance. Burning a ton of pellets with 0.3% ash content produces approx. six pounds of ash; pellets with 1% ash content could produce 20 pounds of ash. Low moisture content means more energy is used to heat your home instead of evaporating moisture in the pellets. Small amounts of fines or dust. These particles are produced during manufacture and can cause performance and maintenance problems. (clinkers)
