Hotter, Drier and Cleaner than industry standards for “Premium” pellets
The Pellet Fuels Institute (PFI) set standards for all pellets, including “Premium.” Olympus pellets exceed these standards in several important ways:
- Heat Output: Olympus Pellets are made from hot burning Douglas fir, which produces more heat, per pound, than other wood species used to make premium pellets.
- 25% Drier Pellets: Olympus 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 PFI Premium standard. Less ash means you only need to clean your stove 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

Burned a ton of these in my St. Croix insert. Nice flame, burned hot with very little ash. However they did turn the glass black within a few hours. I would rather use PackSaddle Douglass Fir pellets, but they are difficult to find in the North East.

I have so much ash and smoke and pellets up on top not down in the drawer. I will never use Olympus again

Disappointed in these
I have used Lignetics for years but they were no longer available locally, so I bought Olympus. I am disappointed in these pellets. Although they do burn cleanly, with less ash, the heat output is a lot less than Lignetics. I find I need to run my stove 2 levels higher just to maintain the heat.
