I used to sweep from the roof down, now I go bottom up after a pigeon flew out of a flue in Gary, Indiana

A retired sweep in Boise told me my brush was too soft for creosote, so I swapped to poly and the difference showed up on the very next job

Held off on buying a rotary chimney brush for 3 seasons, borrowed my buddy's last month and finished a two flue job in half the time
