Let me first start off by saying that I spoke to Hamers Company today and they did confirm that most "Hardwood Heat" pellets are in fact Hamers Hot Ones. Not all are identical but the ones that are delivered to Tractor Supply stores here on the East Coast are them. My main reason for posting is I was hoping for your opinion on which pellet to choose.
I need five tons.
Hamers(Hardwood Heat) 5 tons at 204.50 each does not include delivery.
Greene Team 5 tons at 161.00 each which includes a 10% movers coupon. Add $65.00 for delivery right to my garage.
Hamers $ 1022.50 + Delivery
Greene Team (Lowes) $870.00 which includes delivery.
I found a website that compared stove temps of these pellets and it found that the Hardwood Heats run at about a temperature of 263 degrees while the Greene Teams were about 248 degrees. Does this 15 degree difference make a big difference? Is it worth the extra couple hundred bucks to go with the Hardwood Heats? FYI, my Quadrifire Mt Vernon AE stove runs 24/7 in the winter to try to keep up with my square footage. Thanks in advance.
