I'm trying to clean the stove pipe (for the first time). There's no way I'm getting on that roof, it's much too steep. So I tried to remove a section of pipe and after some light beating with no luck I decided I'd just go up through the stove. I've got the baffles and pipes removed but the hole is all the way in the back and the stove isn't very tall, which means the cleanind rod has to bend 90 degrees in a very shot space and it just won't go. I'm using a Rutland brush and rod I got from Tractor Supply (link below). It's a very sturdy rod, maybe too sturdy? Are there other more flexible rods? Does anyone else clean their Quad from the stove up? The only other thing I've cleaned like this is a fireplace but there was a lot more room.
