Quality always wins out

At Blodgett, we've always tried to carry the best possible products for our customers, with the strong belief that quality is well worth it. One of the things we've been encouraging with respect to the new Woodpecker wood pellet boiler is that consumers seek out quality pellet fuel, certified and with low ash content. We recently tested some poor quality pellets, and found that our test boiler ran sooty, belched black smoke, and operated in the low 80% efficiencies. Once we put our standard pellets in, the boiler ran at 96% efficiency, and the soot and smoke problems were gone. A word to the wise...read the packaging.
