Why Heat With Wood Pellets?

Wood pellets –

• Are convenient and easy to use
• Are easy to handle and store in bulk, taking up less space/volume than wood or heating oil, for example
• Ignite quickly, thanks to low moisture content

• Deliver high energy content and save on heating costs
• Burn efficiently and cleanly

• Are a renewable fuel source and environmentally sound, because they are produced from waste materials like forestry residues and sawdust

• Create lower emissions and ash, because they are a carbon-neutralized form of fuel – so the carbon dioxide released during combustion is compensated during the process of photosynthesis by growing trees and plants
• Contribute to economic growth, as they are made in the USA and don’t rely on any foreign components

Bottom-Line Savings That Really Add Up

A primary advantage to using wood pellets for space heating is the savings in heating costs – just one 40 lb bag of PA Pellets wood pellets replaces 2 1/2 gallons of heating oil.
