Abstract
A chimney vacuum system having an adapter head for fluidly removing accumulated soot under vacuum pressure from a flue or chimney. The chimney vacuum system includes a hose adapted to the head via a frictional fit. The adapter head of the chimney system has a body portion which narrows in volume from an outer diameter to an inner diameter. Extending from the inner diameter is a neck portion for attaching an effluent hose and refuse container downstream. The body of the adapter head includes a sealing gasket defined therein for providing a mechanical and fluid seal with a flue mechanism element in the flow path of the flue.
