Brian,

I have to agree about the clean burning aspect. I just purchased a kerosun-style kerosene heater from Lowe's. So far I've burned it about 30 total hours. Tonight I checked the wick, etc. (for the first time) before lighting and was surprised and delighted to discover NO soot marks on the inside of the heater tower and no carbon build-up on the wick. I'm using the K-1 kerosene fuel. It really does burn clean and odorless. I will make sure I follow the manual on cleaning, etc.

Jim
