Nowadays burning wood pellets as fuel instead of fossil oil is becoming more and more fashionable around the world. There are two ways to get these wood pellets, one is to make wood pellets by yourself at home with the help of a small pellet mill. The other way is to buy wood pellets from wood pellet dealers, but you’d better bear in mind finding a good wood pellet dealer is not so easy as you think for many factors you must take into consideration. First of all, a good wood pellet dealer should have a stable pellet source, besides, they should have the ability of providing best quality pellets fuel at the most favorable price. Just from my point of view, a local wood pellet dealer is your best choice as you can actually cut down your pellets delivery cost a lot by shorter delivery distance, and at the same time, you can buy wood pellets fuel on a smaller amount with the same favorable price as large amount.

Wood pellets fuel can be divided into two grades: premium grade and standard grade. The premium grade wood pellets fuel refers to pellets that ash content must be less than than1%, but as to the standard grade wood pellets fuel, ash content should no more than 3%.

Generally, there are hard wood pellets fuel and soft wood pellets fuel for your reference. Both of these wood pellets fuel materials have advantages and disadvantages, therefore you should know exactly their pros and cons before you purchasing from wood pellet dealers. In most cases, hard wood pellets fuel is pellets customers’ preferred selection for it usually has a lower moisture content and it is much a denser fuel than other pellets and can be burned much longer than soft wood pellets fuel. Soft wood pellets fuel, however, is very easy to light. But this type of pellets fuel has more pitches and saps, they will be burned more quickly than hard wood pellets and perhaps more sparks and sound occurs when being burnt.
