This will be my second year burning and I noticed that much of the stove pipe cement going from my pipe into my draw collar (www.drawcollar.com) has cracked/crumbled ..... Is it normal to have to re-adhere cement annually?? FYI - I am using Hercules High Heat Furnace Cement. Also is it better to have it adhere and dry naturally since I am not firing her up just yet?
