encountered. Higher operation settings provide
for warmer flue temperatures, which help to
keep moisture suspended in the flue gases.
Inspection and Maintenance: When burning
corn, be sure to inspect the appliance and
vent often to determine if there has been any
corrosion or damage to the system. Be sure
to keep the venting system clean, including
the tee cap (if applicable). The ash that results
from burning corn can trap condensate in
the tee cap and inside the vent, hastening
corrosion to the system if left unchecked.
Using pelletized fuel does not eliminate the
need for inspection and cleaning. Lesser
quality pellets create more soot accumulation
and can clog venting sooner than the cleaner
burning pellets. While it is not necessary to
clean out liquid fuel burning systems with a
brush, all other systems should be visually
inspected monthly during the heating season,
and cleaned at least once a year
