Thank you for the reference. I liked his posts because they gave me a few ideas about how the pellet business operates and what brands might work for me. (I started out assuming that pellets were generic, entirely a commodity with no differences except price.) Too bad things turned out the way they did.

P.S. I had better keep up with your research and brand testing. :)
 
I am venturing into the world of a pellets after installing a Lopi AGP insert in March. I have some questions and could use advice. looking to order 4 tons for the winter. The prices you all are quoting seem higher than in southern Maine. Also, a friend swears by Cubex pellets - but I they are hardwood and I thought the idea was to burn softwood. The dealer here is out of Vermont - so not an option (Southern Maine Renewable Fuels). We also have a Jotul Firelight wood stove on the other side of the house - but too much glass and house too big to heat it all. The addition of the pellet stove brought warmth to that side of the house and I burn low all night and furnace never kicked on as normal with just the wood stove on low. Interested in thoughts and information.
