• Hardwoodswithhighmineralcontent
• Barkandleavesassourcematerial
• “Standard”gradepellets,cornandotherbiomass
LowerAshContentMaterial
• Softwood;pine,r,etc.
• Materialswithlowermineralcontent
• “Premium”gradepellets
Shelledeldcorn
• Mustbe15%moisturecontentorless
• Mustbecleanandfreeofdebris
• Mustbemixedwithwoodpellets.(Upto50%)

• Burningtreatedseedcornwillvoidtheproductwarranty
Clinkers
Minerals and other non-combustible materials, like sand,
willturnintoahardglass-likesubstancewhenheated.
Treesfromdifferentareaswillvaryinmineralcontent.For
this reason, some fuels will produce more clinkers than
others.
Moisture
Always burn dry fuel. Burning fuel with high moisture
contenttakesenergytodryandtendstocooltheappliance
thus,robbingheatfromyourhome.Damppelletfuelcould
