The new stove needs a flue pipe of 18cm diameter, the existing galvanized steel pipe is 20cm. We'll insert a new inox 18 cm pipe into the 20cm existing pipe. Before that the old pipe needs cleaning: sweeping. I guess it's never been done before.
Bought a chimney sweeping set on a certain online store, €30, consisting of a brush, and 12 flexible rods that you can attach to eachother, to use it to clean the chimney, rotating the brush using an electric drill.
Closed the pipe off at the bottom with a very strong bag. You really don't want soot in your house. And so don't we. It's not a little, I think the bag contains about 2 kg dirt.
