Bought 3 tons of InstantHeat Addison,NY product at the TSC before checking this board. I always like to support the local guy but I have read a lot of bad things about this pellet here after a quick search. Also, just got done talking to another local pellet distributor who use to carry InstantHeat 3 or 4 years ago. It was of such bad quality at that time he had customers returning the stuff. Should have done my homework first...but the price was soooo good!
We have had a few cold nights the last week or so and had a chance to burn about 3/4 of a bag. So far not bad very little ash and the glass is clean (a little white in the corners), st croix precott on #4 manual set. The only thing I can say is wrong with the pellet is that there is a lot of longs in the bag and no PFI accreditation. I hope its not dirty at the lower settings.
Maybe they cleaned up their act because of all the negative feed back, maybe its just wishful thinking, it can't be any worse than Natures Heat pellets.
Also use a dead blow hammer instead of a metal hammer on the back wall of this stove.
