A boiler system is provided comprising: a furnace adapted to receive a fuel to be burned to generate hot working gases; a fuel supply structure associated with the furnace for supplying fuel to the furnace; a superheater section associated with the furnace and positioned to receive energy in the form of heat from the hot working gases; and a controller. The superheater section may comprise a platen including a tube structure with an end portion and a temperature sensor for measuring the temperature of the tube structure end portion and generating a signal indicative of the temperature of the tube structure end portion. The controller may be coupled to the temperature sensor for receiving and monitoring the signal from the sensor.

A method of cleaning a heat transfer element within a boiler furnace is provided. The method includes the steps of allowing a furnace to operate and deposit ash on a heat transfer element, determining an efficiency rate for at least one cleaning element, and managing the cleaning element based on the efficiency rate.
