Timber Heat Wood Pellets
100% Softwood – Ultra Premium Fuel
Timber Heat Wood Pellets are manufactured from pure softwood sawdust—typically Douglas fir—processed under tight quality control to deliver a clean burn, strong heat output and very low ash. This makes them an excellent choice for pellet stoves optimized for softwood performance.
Typical specs: These pellets are bagged in 40-lb units, feature a heating value around 8,350 BTUs per pound and ash content under 0.25% in selected production runs. The uniform pellet size, minimal fines and low moisture contribute to stable burning and less frequent maintenance.
Availability: While originally produced in the Pacific Northwest, Timber Heat is distributed through select dealers across the U.S. in regions that support premium softwood fuels. Because supply is specialized, check with your dealer for current-season bag date and verify storage conditions before buying large quantities.
Status note: The brand remains recognized as a premium softwood pellet option, though due to its niche positioning batch variation and regional availability can be more pronounced than mainstream brands—it’s wise to test a bag early in the season.
Bottom line: If your pellet stove is tuned for softwood fuel and you’re seeking one of the cleaner, hotter options available with minimal ash and strong burn performance, Timber Heat Wood Pellets are a standout choice—just ensure you’re sourcing fresh stock from your local supplier.

Summary
The picture & review is provided by Ken from NY… Thank you buddy!
These pellets are $5.19/bag at Lowes in southern NY. I know other ratings weren’t so good, buy they seem to have gotten better. Ash was low, heat was moderate, but they seemed to burn rather quickly. Bags were nice and dry. 4 star I would say

I bought a ton from Lowe’s in Farmingdale. Half the ton was either fines or swollen from water. Ever bring home and stack 50 bags in the shed only to reload them in the van to return them and come home with a ton of a different brand. I don’t think my teenage son will ever help me again.
Better to spend a little extra now and save the frustration.
bought 5 bags to try them, as the rest of you. Wasted my money ….! on wet azz pellets that give no heat. How’s does this company even still exist. With product like this. What happen to American pride. Your company just in it for the mighty dollar.
Well I have huge following on a social media site. I make sure to let them know about your wet sawdust in a bag.

Bio-maxx produces them. Same thing as dry Creek except in a different bag. The reason they do this is because Dry Creek brand comes with a territory that dealers can sell into. Once they place the same pellet into a different bag they can avoid they territory issues and open the flood gates for sales. Great pellet, hot burning, low ash, and made in NY with hardwood from NY/PA boarder
I bought 150 bags of timber heat pellets &22 bags in the center was not sealed &WET I HAD ONE BIG MESS I SHEDE I AM NOT HAPPY THANK YOU DENNIS LAWRENCE
These pellets are horrible. The pellets don’t burn in my stove, the burn for an hour then the pot gets filled up with in burned pellets and smokes through the whole house. I won’t buy these pellets again.
