Brush poles/hardware store. If you need to ask, you should probably just pull out the checkbook and have someone do it for you though.
 
The Sooteater is all you will ever need,,,,can get it on Amazon or other internet sites. Search it on this site,,,lots of threads to read.
 
I ordered a set of rods and brush online. Cost was in the $60-65 range with shipping. Its really not a hard thing to do, unless maybe you have a bad glaze built up that the brush wont handle.

I wasnt aware of the sooteater tool when I bought my rods/brush. From what I have read it sounds like the way to go. I find with my set up, its easy to move up/down but twisting around aint happening. The sooteater would give you that motion that has to help with the cleaning.
 
I have a 6" brush and ~20ft of rods, would sell if interested. I bought the shoteater this year so I won't have to tear apart the pipeing.
 
Sooteater . . . can be found on-line.

Or you can go the traditional route and go with a chimney brush (steel or poly) with fiberglass threaded rods . . . can be bought at your local hardware store or on-line. I ended up going with Northline Express as they were/are a sponsor here at hearth.com and I was able to get a poly brush which I could not buy locally.
