Wood Pellets
Pellet Quality
The fuel quality is critical to the performance of your pellet stove or boiler. Burn only pellets which meet the new EN+ standard. Poor quality economy pellets with a low ash melting point will clinker and significantly reduce the performance of your boiler or stove. Clinker is formed when part burnt pellets and ash combine (ash is mainly Silica from soluble silicates in the tree sap). This meets super-heated secondary air and solidifies. Trace element metals in the ash act as flux lowering the melting point of the ash to form clinker. We have found that the ash melting point is one of the most important factors in pellet quality. Certain high performance boilers and stoves operating at very high temperatures are particulary susceptible. Recycled wood, Miscanthus & Short Rotation Willow Coppice (SRC) pellets should only be burned in industrial boilers as they have been designed to cope with high ash & clinker levels. The use of this class of pellet will probably invalidate any domestic stove/boiler warranty.
Cumbria Green Fuels only supply BRANDED PREMIUM EN+ grade pellets from mills that we know and trust. You have a complete guarantee as to the quality, suitability and sustainability of our pellets.You know whats in the bag!

Verdo Wood Pellets
Verdo Renewables are a Danish company who have now opened two new pellet mills in the UK, one in Grangemouth and the other in Andover. They have brought with them a wealth of knowledge and experience in the manufacture of wood pellets.
We have been particularly pleased with the consistency of these pellets both in terms of the uniform pellet length (which is critical in vacuum fed boiler systems) and their burning properties.

Trailer-Mounted Pellet Blower
In the Lake District deliveries by large vehicles are impractical and costly. With our trailer-mounted pellet blower we can service bulk tanks with up to 2 tonnes of pellets. Pellet integrity is also retained by gentle handling of the pellets through the delivery system. Our system also incorporates a unique 'positive pressure' dust removal system which lowers the dust content in the pellet tank. As we are able to get much closer to the receiving tank, pellet damage is greatly reduced with far less dust being generated by the delivery system.
We are able to bulk-fill hoppers and tanks and enter into fuel service contracts for schools, colleges and other larger scale users. Bulk deliveries from £165 per tonne +VAT. Please phone 01768896634 for details of blown deliveries.
