Sample of Comments about Okanagan Pellets found on Hearth.com

"Softwoods generally burn hotter and have less ash... I quit even trying to burn maple/oak and the like because the pine and fir pellets are so much cleaner."

"I'd buy them in a second next season... " "I had a chance to burn 1/2 ton this season. Very impressed. These pellets burn hot with very little ash. Compared to the other brands my dealer offers I liked these best. I ordered 5 tons for next season."

"Maybe the best pellet I burned this year. One thing I had to do however was switch to the sunflower setting instead of the softwood setting. Something about the fuel tables on my Mt. Vernon, I have to play with the various settings to find the best air/fuel mix. These pellets burn hot and clean. If I could get them for a decent price I would go with them!"

"Just bought 4 tons today...the salesman swears my them...he uses them himself."

"In a non-scientific test that I conducted using my Enviro Pellet stove, three bags of Okanagan pellet yielded 4.9 oz. of ash for three bags burned...the hottest pellets that I have ever burned! "

 

"I'm in Harford County, MD and bought a ton of Okanagan's from Courtland last Saturday. So far they've been terrific. I installed my AE last have only used three brands of pellets, the O'Malley's from Courtland that were pretty nice, a few bags from Wal-Mart that I'd rather sell the stove than continue to use and the Okanagan's."
"On Monday the temperature here dropped to about 9 above zero. My Mount Vernon AE set to Manual High and Normal convention blower speed (the highest heat output) kept the downstairs of our 3400 square foot house at 71 through the night and the upstairs at 73. The stove seems to put out noticeably more heat with the Okanagan's pellets. My wife commented that the air coming out feels hotter; on the highest setting it's uncomfortable to keep your hand in front of the exhaust due to the heat. Amazingly there is almost NO ash in the firebox after burning about 10 bags. "

    This past winter is the first time I burned Okanagan wood pellets. I notice the difference by the third bag.I have an Envio Empress stove and it heats a 1500 sqft Cape in New England. I have tried the ones at HomeDepot and Lowes when there was a shortages of pellets. I went through 3 tons of pellets last season. A great wood pellet!

    Hey pellet hunter, Admin here. I have done the same with the LG's. If you can get your hand on Blazer Wood Pellets ( wow pellet company ), those are right up there if not even hotter than the OK's and burn like you read about. I found them at Home Depot 1 time but found them at Robin's down in MA. They are the only ones that took delivery from them out here on the east coast. Like the OK's they are from the west coast and I must say that the west coast softwood pellets put all of the East Coast pellets to shame with quality of burn and temp. The West Coast Douglas fir pellets are great!

    these are the best pellets i used to date. they burn very hot and clean with a large bright flame. My stove would have trouble heating my entire home when the temperature dipped below 20 degrees outside - but since i been using these pellets i can keep my home at a vry comfortable temp. even in the single digits. -I perform a gd. weekly cleaning of my stove then fire it up with a new test bag of different brand pellets. ea. week. (Give it a couple hrs.) Then I use a infrared heat gun to measure the heat output on my stove -(okies are the hottest)- I now mix them with various other brands and it helps them burn much better and hotter so i could use up the ones that arent so great till this cold weather breaks.
