Nope. And I don’t have an air compressor I can bring into the house.

I just run the exhaust fan on high, with the damper open fully, when cleaning. It’s not perfect but it makes a huge difference of sucking out the billowing ash rather than it going into the house. And same with the side ash traps. Even when cleaning the pipe, it helps a lot to kick the ash out of the horizontal section as I stir it up with the brush.
 
I use the compressor to clean the air wash. No other real option and the new 25 CFM Quincy 7.5 HP 40 Amp compressor with Dessicant compressor Air Dryer I just got does the job. :)
