Cleaning Horizontal vent on XXV from bottom up. Roof unsafe

[jim2074]

I have a Harman XXV with a horizontal vent that goes through the ceiling and roof. The pitch on the roof is so steep it is not safe to clean from top down.

Is there a way to clean or brush the pipe from bottom up without removing the stove or disconnecting the pipe?

Would I be able to brush up by removing the combustion fan?

Please let me know.

Do you have a t at back of stove or a 90.if you have a clean out t then just remove the cap and have at it from there. If it's a 90 of the back of the stove then you will have to expose the exhaust path on the inside of the stove and I would highly recommend removing the esp from the exhaust before you start. While you have it out clean it with some windex before reinstalling

You may have to remove the clean out vacuum T cap..and push the brush up..
