This will be my second full year of using my Quadrafire 7100 and am thinking about getting the chimney cleaned.Not sure if anyone around here does that but I will have to check. I was wondering how do you clean it out after the chimney is cleaned? There is pipes in the top pf the fire box and a fiberglass blanket above that. How do you get the creosote out? Is there room?

You really should have your chimney cleaned once a year. If you don't know how to do it than you should call a chimney sweep. They should clean everything for you and make sure everything is in good working order.

the sweep should clean the stove out as well. But honestly if you are calling sweeps now good luck. Don't be surprised if you have to wait a month.
