I was unable to get the chimney swept professionally as the gap between the back boiler plate and the liner plate was too tight for their stiffer rods to go around. These rods were soft enough bend around to get the brush up the liner and sweep the chimney. Managed to clear a blockage at 9 metres up the chminey which got the gas fire drawing again. If this had failed the gas fire would have been condemned and a new heating system would have to been fitted. So well worth the cost.
Got these for hubby to clean the chimney on our stove . He absolutely loved them. Did an incredible job, brought down more soot even after it had been cleaned only a few weeks previously. Also did our daughters and it removed a lot of compacted soot . Easy to use just stick it on your drill and away you go adding a new rod as you go. Highly recommend.
Just used this once. Easy to fit together and easy to use. Flexible and seems to clean well. Pushed it up the chimney and it disconnected with two rods attached at the top. Was able to release with the spare brush. Undecided as I’m in sure if the rod connectors are robust enough to last.
Works perfectly, the only thing to watch out for is that they are connected properly, make sure the spring loaded is fully through, you'll know what I mean when you put it together, 5star from me
