[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1112681, member: 9096"] The only way I can clean out the chimney I have is by setting fire to it, and I don't trust any stainless piping to not rot out on the inside after years of that kind of abuse... The shop has a 10" stack, and when I run across a piece of 9" or so heavy wall pipe I'm going to run that inside the stainless, so all it does is insulate. The brick chimney in the house is full of cracks and we will be redoing that this year. That was a close call! Glad it wasn't worse.. I was wondering if you couldn't loop the same plastic air line you have for the shop air around the chimney, and connect it to a water source.. if things would get too hot it would melt and spray water.. Might have a flood, but it's better than nothing... Then there's always the automatic sprinklers if you want to get fancy.. Frost is a problem with them though... I think the plastic air line (at least 1/4" size) would handle getting frosted. Looks like you'll be good again with a bunch of 2x4's and some new sheetrock anyhow [/QUOTE]
