They offer a modestly priced 6" brush. I believe you can use
conventional drain rods if you purchase the adapter bush.


Thanks, Tim. I see they advertise:

"Flexible nylon rods:- These rods are available in 1/2" diameter and are
designed specifically for use when sweeping chimney liners. They have
brass universal fittings and connect directly to the brushes without the
use of the adaptor below. Each is 1 metre long."

But they don't give any idea of price. Will email them and see if each
1-metre rod is less than £20 each.


18 or so, not much help! You get prices when you go to the purchase
page.

No, can't you conventional drain rods. Have them already. Nearly an
inch thick and no flexibility in them for getting around the 45 degree
bends.


Cowl off and down from the top? Presumably the acute bends are in the
bit at the bottom?
