The attachment for cleaning fireplaces mentioned above can be purchased from http://www.vacuumspot.com.au they are $69.
I would like to buy a vacuum cleaner for my fireplace. Is there one on the Australian market.
Thank you for your information.
Yours kindly,

That isn’t something that I have ever seen here, but then I also haven’t seen many fireplaces here.
They seem to be commonly available in some parts of the United States, but the only mention of vacuums and fireplaces I can find, in Australia, is on the Godfreys vacuum website, where it says:
My feeling is that the vacuum filter would need replacing afterwards, or at the very least, substantial cleaning.
Something like this for about US$90, added to a home vacuum, looks like an option, but it involves shipping in from the USA. http://www.woodlanddirect.com/Fireplace-Accessories/Fireplace-Ash-Vacuums/Bad-Ash-Fireplace-Cleaner
Or, in the UK for £20 at http://www.redsave.com/products/ash-wizard
There may be a market, in some parts of Australia, for someone to import these. With them selling for only A$32 in the UK… I wonder what the delivery charge is ?
