This chimney was installed a year ago. Is there a clean out or area where I can check the chimney for gunk?

It's usually right at the bottom of the T. You may have to pull a cover on the support to find the cap, but that's where I would look.

Looks like you may need a ladder.
 
I did not see a place to clean the chimney from. I'm assuming I can access the chimney from the bottom and not from the cap at the top.
