Here in Minnesota, the State Fair pretty much marks the end of summer and with that comes chimney cleaning time. Punched mine today in the shop. The new double wall stainless that I put in last year is far superior to the old black pipe run I had. In twenty foot of pipe there was just enough soot to fill the palm of your hand....:msp_thumbup:

I did a 2 story 8"er last week. Installed in 2007. It had 3/4 inch of nasty that filled 1 3/4 5 gallon buckets and part of a vacuum.

All new components and it is pretty hot most of the winter at -40.

Yuck. I'd want to be doing that one twice a year if it were possible.
