Chimney Sweep Useful Tip:

All About Chimney Rods
Cleaning out the chimney regularly is a must for anyone with a wood-burning fireplace. Soot, ashes and creosote can all crowd that chimney, creating fire and air-quality hazards. But before you jump into doing all of the cleaning yourself, here's a rundown of all the basics you should know before investing in a chimney rod.

What They Are
Chimney rods are long rods used along with an attachment chimney brush. Typically made up of 10 different parts about 1 metre long each, the rods can be connected in order to get the length you need. Each rod had a ‘male' part and a ‘female' part that can connect to each other, allowing you to extend the brush. Rod sets might also include chimney brushes, double worm screws and drop scrapers.

Most chimney rods are made up of polypropylene, a lightweight plastic that is strong but flexible, allowing it to bend just enough to get into the chimney. For smaller or more narrow chimneys, fiberglass rods can be used. Much more flexible than polypropylene rods, fiberglass units will bend and curve, fitting through tight spaces or sharp bends.

Choosing a Chimney Rod
Choosing the correct chimney rod depends on the type of chimney you have in your home, and how you plan to use the rod to clean. Here are the things to consider before looking for a rod.
  • Your Chimney Type: If you have an older-fashioned brick chimney with a clay lining, you will need a stronger rod. Polypropylene rods work best for these chimneys. If you have an unlined chimney, or one containing stainless steel then you may want to try a fiberglass rod, though polypropylene rods would still work well.
  • The Size Shape of Your Chimney: A more narrow chimney, or one with tight corners will require a fiberglass rod. Sliding a stiffer polypropylene rod through a narrow chimney would not work well and might cause the rod to get lodged in the opening. Also be sure when choosing your chimney brush to go with your rod that you choose a shape that will match the width and shape of your chimney flue.
  • Rod Joints: If you are buying an additional set of rods to connect to an older set, you'll want to be sure that the new joints can connect with the old. Typically, joints come in a few different varieties. The most common type, universal joints, connect together with a small screw on the male joint that turns into the female joint. Other common types include Spring Joints, Lockfast Joints and Button Joints. If you are buying new rods, the best thing to do is go with universal joints, which can be added to easily later on with additional sets.
Additional Tools
Some additional tools are available to attach or use with the chimney rod sets. These are the most commonly used accessories.
  • Spear Heads: Spear heads can be used to remove blockages in the chimney that brushes are not strong enough to get out.
  • Clearing Wheels: Clearing wheels can also be used to remove tough blockages from the chimney walls. They make the job a little easier by rolling along them, getting to things you might not be able to see.
  • Nest Hooks: These are used to remove bird nests from chimneys that can block airways and cause dangerous gases to be released.
While chimney rods are not overly complicated to purchase, it is important to consider all of the above before making your purchase.
