I don’t have a picture up top. I cleaned it from the bottom up. I was just concerned that I still saw some shiny stuff and was worried if there’s still creosote. Not sure how clean is clean. I only got about a cup worth of junk out when I brushed it out.
That's good.
"According to the Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA), fireplaces need to be cleaned once there is 1/8″ of creosote and/or soot buildup inside the chimney liner. According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), all chimneys should be cleaned at least once every year, regardless."
