Chiminey Cleaning Brush - pellet stove brush, pellet stove cleaning
The shaft on the long pellet brush is too flexible. I tried to push it up a straight pipe and when it got to a slightly tight spot, the handle wasn't stiff enough to push it through. I would try another brand. Brushtech B67C Pellet Stove Cleaning Kit
Bush worked well. Droped down form top of chiminey, worked up and down and that was it. Just wished the line was a little longer because the brush didn't reach the bottom of my stove pipe. The little brush works well cleaning out the inside of stove.sd
I could only clean the first 3' of my vent pipe with this product coming in from the top. After working it in about 3' the rod binds up. Coming in from the bottom the rod wads up as soon as the brush reaches the 45 degree dogleg. The flex rod needs to be a lot more rigid for this product to work properly.
This brush "out of the box" did not work at all in cleaning my Dura Vent 3" pellet stove pipe. At best I got it to feed in about 3 feet and doing that was a real struggle.The shaft is WAY too flexible, the brush too long and the brush nose is too sharp.I got this to work by taping a piece of flexible steel fish strap (for fishing electric wire through walls) along the whole length of the shaft, cutting the length of the brush down by half (while keeping the original brush diameter) and gluing a wood ball to the nose. It now does what it is supposed to do and will now go around 90 degree bends and clean a 10' length of 3" pipe with no trouble. - Pellet Stove Cleaning - Chimney Brush - Pellet Stove Brush'
