Hay Creek Companies continue their support of the environment and now manufacture wood fuel pellets for consumer use. These wood fuel pellets are manufactured by compressing sawdust remnants from the lumber industry, furniture and flooring, and from forestry by-products. The wood materials used to manufacture the pellets are only recycled wood products. Thus, burning these pellets is a carbon-neutral process. All wood pellets manufactured at Hay Creek meet strict ash content, moisture content, heat output, and quality and are classified as Premium Wood Fuel Pellets by the Pellet Fuel Institute.

Hay Creek wood fuel pellets are supplied to our many retailers and can be purchased from those dealers in our network.

    Too much soot. Doesn’t seem we get the same heat as we do from hardwood pellets

    More expensive. Not as clean burning

    Absolut garbage. Burned 3 ton last year. Was told this was a softwood blend it is clearly not. Spoke to the uncaring mfg. And their claim is its ground up pallets and they don't know what the ratio of hard to softwood is yet dealers are still selling this crap as mostly softwood. Strong don't buy!

    Dealers lie about pellets. Not all but too many

    I cannot tell anyone to ever buy these pellets. I purchased 3 ton and carried them all on two flights of steps into the basement just to find out that the pellets are too long, and too wide as well as having a kind of sticky consistency. They bridge two to three times per day in my Harman pellet stove hopper. The only way that I can consistently keep my pellet stove burning is if I'm constantly disturbing the pellets so they do not bridge. Pretty tough to keep your home warm when you are gone for the day or sleeping and you can't disturb the pellets in the hopper to keep them from hanging up. Very frustrated. Going to be a long winter. I am so happy that I am not a dealer of these pellets. That would be terrible. Save yourself the headache, don't ever buy these!

    Excellent product ,very consistent burn ,low ash and dust

    Disliked

    That haycreek doesn't sell to the public ,only to distributors that rake people over the coals ,and divorce the end user of their money.
    This is a stupid policy ,completely ignorant business choice. I might need to find a different company that's willing to sell their product to brick and mortar and end users.
    Companies that don't are losing money and business and haycreek isn't monitoring their dealers ,I've had ripped bags , moisture in the bags from sitting outside uncovered, etc etc
    Overall I like the blended fuel pellets ,however it would be better if I could buy direct ,instead of buying from a dealer who doesn't care

  5. Vicky

    Crap! Doing nothing but wrecking my pellet stove. Constant cleaning needed. Plugged up my auger and now again today. Worse pellets I had ever used!!! I would go back to Marth which I thought we bad until these.
