The problem with Lignetics Pellets is that we had a big layoff in December 2009 and when we started our plant back up, the new workers had to be retrained. Quality issues surfaced since the new workers were not properly trained and many of the bags contained powder instead of pellets. We are still working to fix this problem..Please be patient folks..We are working on it. If you get a bag with powder instead of pellets, just simply return it to where you bought it and we will issue you a new bag

Larry, My installer sells the Ligs. I bought them from him. They contacted Lignetics and the guy said yes they had a problem. Lots of new employees but it has been rectified now.

I want them to send me 10 bags of the new batch to see for myself. But they won’t do that. May end up looking for something else to burn.

I bought a ton of Lignetics, Blue Label, made in Virginia. The ash content is horrible! I have to clean the stove every day!! PITA.
They burn well, put out good heat. But……………

I don’t know if I will buy them again this year.

I’m looking for a good premium pellet anywhere in Iowa…..We have a new stove and have only tried Ozark (Menards) and Pro Pellets (local TSC)……Ozark burned hotter but lots of ash…Pro Pellets burn cleaner but lower heat output. Any suggestions? Would love to have a couple of tons for next winter, but don’t want to get stuck with some “bad burning” pellet.

In the past and present I’ve had good results with Lignetics pellets ie low ash, high heat output. This season I am burning Lignetics again and in general I’ve noticed slightly more ash and clunkers. Burning the 1st 3-tons of Lignetics pellets I’ve had no real issues, I am on my 4th ton now and I’ve noticed with some of the pellet bags, the pellet sizes are larger than 1.5″ in length and I’ve had more ash and clunkers relative to the 1st 3-tons. In fact my stove has gone out twice using the 4th ton of pellets (and I clean it once a week whether it needs it or not). When I snapped the pellets they didn’t snap crisp, there could be more moisture in this ton of pellets than the 1st 3-tons; I don’t have a meter to verify. I’ve noticed that pellet’s minor quality varies from year to year, with manufacturer’s varying raw material supplies, and the how the re-sellers store the pellets and combination of the weather. Last year “Wood Pellets” brand burned like this year’s Lignetics and this year’s “Wood Pellets” brand burned like last year’s Lignetics. I believe that the year-to-year pellet burn characteristics of any giving brand are going to be slightly different.

I have a Quadrafire 1200 and just burned 4 bags of Lignetics for a test. They produce the least amount of ash I have ever seen. Four bags almost less than a cup….total. Could it be a stove issue?
