best tools for sweeping 6" flex liner?

[dreezon]

My roof is very high, and I especially don't like the thought of getting up there if there's any snow or—heaven forbid—freezing rain, so I would dearly love to be able to sweep from the bottom with flexible poles. Trouble is, I only have about 22 inches between the floor and the bottom of my tee. I know the usual poles aren't flexible enough to pull that off.

I saw some lighter, more flexible poles at menards, that apparently are designed for corn burner pipe and I wondered if there were anything like that for six-inch round brushes. Is my dream of sweeping from my living room just that—a dream?

Also what's the best brush for this type of liner?

check out Guardus inc soot eater . i think it does fine for a quick winter sweep and is flexable enough for that 22 inch space

Is this Rutland brush good? http://www.amazon.com/Rutland-Poly-...d_bxgy_hg_img_a?ie=UTF8&qid=1256183125&sr=1-1

I mostly want to make sure it's safe/appropriate for the flexible liner.

Oh, I also have an ovalized end. Will the poly brushes flex enough to accommodate the ovalized part and not damage the liner?

I agree. The soot eater rods are far more flexible than any others I have seen. It truly is a great device for those of use with tough to reach chimneys, 45 degree bends, rear exiting stoves and the need to clean from the bottom up.
