My stove vents into a Duraplus solid insulated oval liner with the bottom 5' flex oval. I think it has an ID of 4 3/4" X 7". Where can I get a brush for this liner?
Thanks

You could buy a round 8 inch and shape it with a die grinder and a template made from cardboard.....probably take an hour.

The guy who cleaned our chimney this year used a round brush, said it worked fine.

Is your pipe factory built oval or on site "ovalized"? I would think that a round brush that could reach the 7" diameter would have a hard time in the 4 3/4" dimension.

That is a possibility. However between an old boat & an old house, I've got enough projects going already. (not counting all the bucked wood I still have to split) I was hoping
someone could point me to an online source.

You would think that if someone builds the pipe then someone builds the brush - but who knows. I have a 5' section of oval to clean on mine...
