For a more sustainable home heating solution, wood pellets are a reliable option that won’t break the bank. Find out what you need to know about wood pellets, then explore pellets for your pellet stove from different brands at Ace Hardware.

How Many Wood Pellets Does Your Pellet Stove Need?

The amount of pellet stove pellets you need depends on the following factors:

  • The size of your home
  • The type of wood pellet stove you own
  • If you use your pellet stove to supplement or replace traditional heating

Because of these variables, it might be difficult to gauge exactly how many pounds of wood pellets you need for your stove. Pellets for pellet stoves are sold in 40 lb. bags, with each bag producing about a full day’s worth of heating. If you want to talk through your options, stop into your neighborhood Ace where our knowledgeable associates are happy to help.

What are Pellet Stove Pellets Made Of?

Wood pellets tend to be made from wood, typically using wood shavings, chips, saw dust or other forms of wood waste. Additionally, other organic materials can be used to create wood pellets, allowing for cleaner and more efficient fuel production.

What Are Wood Pellets Used For?

Wood pellets are versatile fuel options that can replace or supplement other fuels. This includes charcoal, coal, propane and gas for a variety of different uses, like home heating or grilling.

Can I Use Wood Stove Pellets in a Smoker?

While we provide high-quality wood pellets for stoves, it is important to purchase wood pellets for a smoker specifically. Make sure that you are using food-grade cooking pellets by shopping our selection of smoking pellets and chunks, with a variety of seasoning blends to influence the taste of the meats, veggies and other foods you might be grilling.

Gas vs Wood Pellets for Heating

Where traditional fuel sources may be more expensive and damaging to the environment, wood pellets offer a few key advantages to help you warm your home for less.

  • More Affordable: Natural gas and propane tend to be more expensive than wood pellets, saving you lots of money while helping to keep you warm during the cold winter months.
  • Eco-Friendly Energy: The wood waste materials that go into making wood pellets and the process to make them ensure a more environmentally friendly source of energy than alternative fuels.

What’s more, wood pellet stoves tend to be very efficient, allowing you to supplement your home heating with a more cost-effective fuel source.

Do Softwood Pellets Burn Faster than Hardwood Pellets?

A common thing you will have to decide is choosing between hardwood vs softwood pellets. While hardwood burns longer than softwood in its natural form due to its higher density, the two types effectively have the same density in pellet form. What’s more, softwood pellets tend to burn hotter and cleaner than their hardwood counterparts, all while producing less ash.

Whether you purchase hardwood pellets, softwood pellets or blended pellets featuring both, you can’t go wrong with wood pellet fuel made without glues or binders that also have low moisture content for stronger, cleaner burns.
