If the correct super flexible rods are used. The debris will fall into the fire box from where
it can be removed. All stoves including cooker models can be swept through unless a rear
horizontal adaptor is used (in this case additional sweeping provision will be needed).
Unlined chimney
If the chimney is unlined the cooker models cannot be swept through the stoves (due to size
of brushes) so additional sweeping provision will need to be made.
