Outside chimneys seem to creosote up much worse than a chimney built inside the building.
The inside chimneys always seem to choke right where the chimney goes through the roof. Creosote doesn't form as bad on a hot chimney surface.
I used a 12" long piece of 6" I-beam to clean mine. Had a loop welded to the top center to tie to. About once a month would do it. Be sure to remove the scrapin's from the cleanout - they'll burn hot if they ever get lit.
Every piece of the exhaust should be looked at suspiciously, and often. You should be equipped to seal off ALL of the intake air in case of a chimney fire. Don't overlook the cleanout door - I've seen lots of them that were loose fitting and would be a nightmare in a chimney fire.
