Decided to clean the chimney for the woodstove today, just finished then the rains came. I cleaned this at the end of December last year, when I took the cleanout cap off you can see what was in it, the rest was all fluffy fine stuff.


I will be doing the inside pipe next week.

That must be from all that bad wood you cut zap! You can be proud as you are doing a fine job.
 
Is it OK to use for "catalytic" stoves?
 
You sure that was creosote and fly ash . . . and not just left-over coffee grounds in the can? ;) :)

Throw it back in the stove.


I think it would have been less but Sav did something to our wood when he stopped by.
