Before burning, check the pellets for foreign objects.
The stove warranty will not cover damage done to the
stove due to foreign objects in the fuel supply.

absorbing added moisture.

vacuumedoutafterevery6-8bagsofpelletsormore
often if the pellets are poor quality. You may have to
screen each bag of pellets if dust becomes a problem.
Wood pellets are generally produced out of wood
waste such as sawdust and shavings. The raw material

to water droplets from condensation they will gradually
decompose and loose their effectiveness as a fuel. The

a gradual chemical breakdown.
Cherry Pits are the woody remains of processed
cherries. This fuel can be found affordably in regions
of the country that process cherries.
