where others fail to reach. Rods are available in two sizes: 3/4”
diameter or 7/8” diameter. Due to demand we have added a 3’ rod
with 7/8” diameter. Where optimum flexibility is essential, start with
the 3/4” diameter and add sections of the stiffer 7/8” diameter rods.

SWEEPSALL BRUSH
(D) SweepsAll Brushes have tough acid resistant bristles for use on
wood, coal, oil or gas flues. The brushes are especially suited to
cleaning offset chimneys and flues relined with flexible pipe where
creosote is not a problem. Soft floppy bristles allow the brush,
regardless of size, to fit most standard flues and will not damage or
score liners. We offer both coarse threading or the new Torque Lock
Connector (TLC).

AUGUST WEST SOOTSWEEPER® II TURBOSWEEPER®

• The most powerful vacuum for controlling dust!
• Exchanges all the air in an average room in 2 minutes
• Moves air 7 to 10 times more effectively than an industrial vacuum
• The filter hold the smallest particles and has a huge capacity
(A) SootSweeper II is the only vacuum on the market made solely
for chimney sweeps to control dust. When the big 4” diameter hose
is placed inside a fireplace and the switch is turned on, all the air in
the fireplace is drawn into the machine. Air from the room rushes
into the fireplace to fill the vacuum created and due to the natural
draft of the chimney air cannot come down the shaft. All the clouds
of dust the cleaning creates just swirl around for a few seconds and
then disappear into the SootSweeper hose. Two year warranty on the
motor, one year on the remaining parts.
• Perfect companion to the SootSweeper II
• Picks up large chunks as well as small soot particles.
• Use in oil and gas flues, smoke shelves, and in fireboxes
(B) It is engineered to take the abuse from constant daily use. The
high-density polyethylene body is compact and is dent and rust
proof. The crush-proof 1-1/2” vinyl hose is a generous 10’ long with
molded vinyl cuffs. The supplemental 7/8” x 4’ metal hose attaches
to reach those annoying soot-filled crevasses and cracks. The hose
has positive-locking fitting that smoothly swivels 360°. The motor
will not overheat if there is any blockage. The three latches are wide,
which gives them long lasting strength and they seal the motor head
securely to prevent dust from escaping. Five year warranty on the
tank, two years on the motor and one year on the remaining parts.

AUGUST WEST CHEMICALS
A B C D E F
Stage One - Creosote Remover
(A) Specially formulated powder for use in pre-fab chimneys.
Powerful ingredients combine with flue gasses to change the
chemical composition of creosote into an easily removed, dry flaky
compound. It is nonpolluting, nonflammable, noncorrosive and can
be used in wood burning fireplaces, stoves, furnaces and boilers.
AW-2012 2 lbs. 12/cs AW-5012 16 fl. oz. 6/cs
Stage Two – Creosote Remover
(B) Liquid preventative that reduces build up of third state creosote
caused by incomplete combustion in wood burning stoves and
fireplaces. The active catalyst, introduced into the combustion
process, transforms deposits into brushable soot. Regular
applications will greatly reduce the chances of a dangerous
chimney fire.
AW-1006 32 fl. oz. 6/cs
TSR – Third State Creosote Remover
(C) TSR dissolves baked on creosote glaze and reduces baked on
resins to loose, brushable soot without requiring heat. Buildup
must first be brushed with a properly sized flat wire brush. An
even application of TSR begins the process of breaking down the
glaze buildup and it must be completely dry before final brushing
with a flat wire brush. When the flue is clean, apply Stage Two as a
neutralizer. For Professional Chimney Sweep use only.
AW-4012 32 fl. oz. 12/cs
Clean & Brite
(D) A spray-on liquid to remove creosote, dirt and stains from
masonry and glass without hard rubbing. It is nonabrasive,
nonflammable, clings to vertical surfaces and will not scratch.
For professional use only.
AW-3012 16 fl. oz. 12/cs Chimney Masonry Patch
For additional chemicals, request a copy of the Rutland catalog or go to our website www.rutland.com.

CHIMNEY SHIELD
G H I
Smoke Clear
(E) Formulated specifically to neutralize smoke odors from fireplaces,
chimneys, fuels oils and fire damage. It does not mask odors, it
neutralizes them. A quart of concentrate makes one gallon when
mixed with water. Use in a spray bottle or for larger jobs, use a
standard garden type sprayer.
Chimney Shield Masonry Cleaner
(F) A concentrated environmentally friendly cleaner that removes
dirt, efflorescence and stains, including creosote build up on brick,
block or stone chimneys. Combats acid rain. Neutralizes acid build
up caused by muriatic acid or other acid cleaners. For light build
up mix 2 parts water to 1 part Masonry Cleaner or for average to
heavy build up use one to one ratio. Apply a diluted solution to a
dampened area with low pressure sprayer or brush. Scrub vigorously
and thoroughly rinse the cleaned surface with water.
1PC 1 gal 1/cs
Chimney Shield Water Repellent
For use on vertical surfaces. Our Chimney Shield system guarantees
a decade of protection to prevent spalling, free/thaw damage and
deterioration of masonry surfaces. One application forms a barrier
against water, yet it allows the water vapor to escape.
Non-flammable, transparent, water-based formulation works on most
masonry surfaces. Apply with a low pressure sprayer to either damp
or dry surfaces after proper cleaning with Chimney Shield Masonry
Cleaner.
(G) 5CS 5 Gal. 1/ea
(H) 25CS 2.5 Gal. 2/cs
CHIMNEY REPAIR
(I) A patching cement for exterior use in repairing broken mortar
in chimneys, steps, sills, sidewalks, or foundations. It dries to a hard,
tough, weather-resistant finish in a natural concrete color. It skins
over in a few minutes and cures in one day or more, depending on
thickness of patch.
