how tall is the chimneySo I decided that I was never going to scrape up the $200 to get my chimney swept before we start 24/7 burning this year so I decided to go down to Ace, get a brush, poles, and do it myself.
Here are some before, after and what ended up in the firebox pics. Looks like it was pretty bad.

How many cords had burned in there? When was the last time it was swept?
No, I just stacked the baffles on top of each other and moved them to the front away from the flue. Then after I swept, I held them vertically to dump whatever had fallen on them.Guess it was time. Did you drop the baffles and tubes after? Lotta crap gets stuck up there after brushing.
