Please excuse this rookie question.

This is the first time I've had a woodstove with the chimney vented out the back of the stove, instead of through the top of the stove.

I want to get up on the roof and sweep my chimney, but as of right now I haven't figured a way to access the chimney through the back inside of the stove so I can shop vac the material.

I've looked through this forum, didn't readily see if it's been discussed.

If it has, please forgive the new guy and point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance.
Mike
