I use Rodtech Power Sweeping equipment to give all my chimneys the best possible clean. This sweeping equipment has been developed by experienced sweeps and is an award winning, Industry approved method of sweeping.

Before starting I fill the bottom of the flue with foam blocks to catch any mess and soot that will be disturbed by brushing.

When power sweeping, the brush head spins and expands through centrifugal force to suite the flue (chimney) that we are sweeping it also centres itself. Due to the way the heads have been designed, it is actually the sides of the strands that sweep the flue(chimney)causing less damage than incorrectly choosing a traditional brush head to sweep a flue(chimney). There is an added advantage that using the speed of the drill can stiffen and soften the sweeping action. So if you are doing an older style chimney then you would use a low speed (softer) however if you are doing a heavily built up clay / steel flue then you can up the speed giving you unbelievable cleaning action.
