Where to buy pellets?

[jdege]

Are there any preferences between buying from Lowes (with carefull review of lables), vs a stove shop, vs pellets.com?
Lowes (.4 - .6 ash & low moisture) is about $40/ton less than pellets.com and more. But just because the lables read the same are they similar??
Only 2nd week of owning an insert so thanks for feedback.

There is a wealth of information on pellets here if you do a search.....if the BTU ouput of your stove is marginal relative to the amount of space you have to heat you should be looking at super-premium pellets, with the highest heat ouput, which you don't normally find in the big box stores.
