I am able to sweep out/vacuum all piping/venting of this stove- except for the length between the exhaust fan to where stove connects with vent. The opening to this area near the exhaust fan is so small that I cannot get my vent brush or vacuum attachment in there. Is there a way to get this area clean without disconnecting stove from venting? Castle serenity cleaning.Castle serenity cleaning.
 
Leaf blower trick
 
how about coming from outside and using a flexible sooteater sort of tool?
 
It sounds dumb but on my buddies stove we pull the cap at the bottom of the t and tap the pipe with a hammer to knock it all down. Then use a shop vac on the low to suck and blow the rest out.
