I am a fairly new wood stove user (previously gas) and have discovered the joys of needing to clean creosote from my chimney. Now the problem begins with just how to gain easy access to the chimney in order to scrape the creosote. The burners and baffle are located at the top of the box and therefore at least the baffle must be removed to ensure the creosote will drop to the box. But I hope to, if possible, clean the chimney from the bottom as I have an "A" frame roof which currently has 3-4 feet of snow planted on it.
I have through other forums learned how to remove the baffle, but is there a simple, or other, way to remove or drop down the heating tubes to gain access to the chimney from the bottom.
