Hamers Hot Ones pellet fuel is made from clean sawdust, much of which comes from our own lumber operations in the heart of the Appalachian Region of the United States in West Virginia. Distribution area is in the mid Atlantic and NorthEast States (WV, VA, PA, MD, NJ, OH, CT, Del, NC and Mass.)
Why Choose Hamer’s Hot Ones? The dust is compressed into pellets that produce clean, reliable heat with low emissions and an extremely small amount of ash.
Experience – We are the oldest residential pellet manufacturer in the Eastern United States. We know how to provide quality pellets consistently.

I thought I would try these pellets. Not satisfied too much ash, real dark and heavy. Heat seems to be ok, but will go back to Somerset.
1st time using these. Very disappointed with them. Seem to have moisture in them. Some bags have pellets that are puffed up and going apart. Clogging up on the burn plate.
I store them in my garage under our house. They didn’t get wet and were wrapped when I picked them up. Any moisture would have been picked up during manufacturing.
Will never use again.
bad patch this year
not burning have to empty ash pan way to much
I have new osburn stove
You must have a bad batch this year, as I am extremely disappointed in the pellets this year. I have to empty the ash pan way too often. I was pleased the past three years of purchasing these pellets, however this year they are awful.
I see many others are disappointed as well. You should seriously check to see why so many people that purchase your pellets each year are let down. I’m not talking purchasing a ton, I purchase at least 6-8 tons each year.
Perhaps it’s time to find another avenue to purchase quality product.
After three years of High Heat, Little ash and clean glass, the pellets in 2016 / 2017 burn with terrible black deposits on the doors glass. I am disappointed this year.

We used mostly Hamers last year – the 2014-15 Season, and they were the best of the pellets we’ve tried. Burned hot, not a lot of ash, cleaned the stove generally weekly.
However, since we were so pleased, we set in a 4 ton supply over the summer while we had a preorder discount. But once the heating season started we’ve been a bit disappointed. This years “crop” does not seem to be burning quite as hot, and producing far more ash, and the quality of the ash seems different. So we’re cleaning about every 6-8 bags now. But what’s been the most annoying is we’re getting clogged pots with clinker beds a LOT. At least 5 times since the heating season and twice back to back. Two of the clinkers were laced with a curious green residue, which I surmise indicates inpurities in the pellets.
Looking down the thread, I see a lot of variation with peoples results. I gather that the season, “crop” and “Batch” seems to vary a LOT. – Which is a bit annoying you get the best prices by the ton. An aside, our next best pellet was Lignetics. We’re in the Eastern Panhandle of WV.
How do I find someone who sells Hammer Hot ones and what the price is per ton. We would also be interested in being a dealer for Hammer Hot Ones.
My pellet supplier, as I am sure do many, says the best pellet is what works in your appliance. In 10 seasons of using a Harman fireplace insert, I have formed conclusions, if not scientific, of what works best for my situation. I concur that Hamers does produce plenty of heat, has very low ash but they seem to burn more quickly than other premium products. I still prefer all-oak Turman, and in last year’s shortage I was pleased with Cubex. Hamers is a solid second choice, better if the price is right.
I started using Hamer’s and I’m very happy with the product. So little ash, higher heat output and less used. This is my 2nd year of using my pellet stove and I am not going to by the Energex again – way way too much ash. Hamer’s gets my vote!!!
