Dan,
What causes the down draft? If that were eliminated, wouldn't the furnace
last longer?

Spero,
I think a new chimney would help with the down draft issue. Not really
sure that would be any cheaper than a new furnace though. Besides, I
really want a side vented furnace so I can move the unit toward the back
of the house instead of the middle along one side.
don't tell Teresa
He probably needs to extend the chimney pipe a little higher. Still, a
modern closed combustion unit will give more room, tighten up the air
envelope of the living space and pay back in about as many years as the
furnace will last I figure.
