Hotter, Drier and Cleaner than Pellet Fuels Institute national “Premium” standards
The Pellet Fuels Institute (PFI) set standards for all pellets, including “Premium.” Cascade pellets exceed these standards in several important ways, making them Ultra Premium:
- Heat Output: Cascade Pellets are made from hot burning Douglas fir, which produces more heat, per pound, than other wood species.
- 25% Drier Pellets: Cascade Pellets are 25% drier than PFI standards for Premium pellets. Drier pellets contain less water, so they burn more efficiently with more home heat.
- 75% Cleaner Pellets: Olympus Pellets produce less than 0.25% ash, which is 75% less than the national “Premium” standards. Less ash means you only need to clean your pellet stoves a few times per month.

Summary
These were fantastic pellets a few years back. I’m hoping to get a new bag for this 2018-19 heating season

Good pellets!
I’ve burned Cascade Pellets for 3+ winters now—at least a ton or two each season—and they’ve been very reliable. They burn clean, only requiring a weekly stove cleaning, and they produce virtually no clinkers. Compared to some other brands I’ve tried (that are ”golden”), the difference is noticeable. Consistent heat, economical price, low ash, and easy maintenance have made these my go-to pellets. Highly recommended.

Cascade pellets
Cascade pellets this year are terrible. Unfortunately bought two tons. Sootie to the point it is getting all over my home on my floor I don’t understand how but it is. Ash is terrible. Having to clean the pot everyday. Will not purchase again. Turns every thing black including my floor.

Cascade pellets
Bought a ton of cascade pellets last year, no issues, burned clean. Store was out of the cascades when I needed more. I tried two different brands. Both of these other brands didn’t burn clean, or weren’t as hot, auger would squeal due to excessive dust. Won’t make that mistake again. Bought 3 tons this year in the fall
