Pennington Wood Pellets are a clean-burning PREMIUM wood pellet with less than 1% ash produced. And because wood pellet stoves burn efficiently, there is almost complete combustion of the fuel, creating minimal smoke & air emissions.

Waste of $1600
We have had a pellet stove in our basement for 15 yrs and our basement has always been warm & toasty. I am very disappointed in these pellets. Our basement is freezing & very uncomfortable. I can stand 6” in front of the stove and not hardly feel any heat from it. Will not be purchasing pennington pellets again

Home use
The only 2 issues with the Pennington pellets is #1. They have a extreme Dust when poured into hopper! Have to wipe down & vacuum area frequently!
2. The bags tear easily when handling. Get small holes when loading & unloaded! Have to keep a roll of tape handy when transporting!

i have been burning wood pellets for more than 15 years. this year i bought 3 tons of pennington wood pellets. these pellets burn but leave large chunks of ash. this ash has to be removed every 4 hours, or the flame will change and not produce heat. the bag says that these pellets are clean burning and has low ash. this is wrong, and a lie.
is there a warranty on this product? i still have 2 tons in the garage.
please get back to me.
Burning pellets for just two years. My review needs to state their is a difference if the pellets are kept sheltered or unsheltered. If you have torn bags, wet bags, lots of sawdust your pellets are not going to produce good results- they’ve been damaged/wet (usually in transport or storage).
I had good results with my Pennington purchase at Sams club. They were brought out to me from inside storage. Following are my test results:
From a cleaned Englander stove
10 min to ignition setting 2-3 (2 feed, 3 blower) outside temp 52 deg. F
17 min fan start 2,3 250 deg F. using an inferred temp sensor 3″ from blower vent
20 min full burn pot ignition 275 Deg
30 min 150 deg
45 min 200 deg
200 deg seems to be where it averaged on low setting 2,3
After burning all night and over 16+ hours i had very little ash in burn pot – although the rest of the stove had the rest of the ash. Absolutely NO clinkers.
Overall satisfaction Satisfied
Similar results with another Maine brand pellet Northeast
I normally buy Lowe’s or Home Depot pellets but they were never consistently good or bad, particularly Home Depot pellets. So I thought I would try Pennington Nature’s heat pellets. Mistake, they are very dusty, smelly, and produce tons more ash than the pellets I had been buying from the other sources. I will not try them again.
Found these at Walmart last season and ended up using them with a dozen left over to get me into the Fall ’15 burn season. Found to be an excellent pellet. The Plymouth, MA store did not get a fresh load in until late November. BIG difference, can only describe as the worst pellets I have ever used in my Thelin Tiburon stove. Frequently find the burn chamber with a solid chunk of cinder the size of a hamburger.
Buyer beware. I’m a 70 year old woman ; which just purchased your pellets, I had to pay the neighbor boy to unload for me!! Now I have 5 bags of 1/3 full of this very poor grade of pellets… The bags are more sawdust than pellets…. So bad I will no way put it in my stove…I will never buy this brand again ..now I have bags that I have no idea what to do with …. Think I should be reinburst…… Very unhappy!!!!
