Hello. We purchased a new place this summer. There is a Buderus wood boiler (ID plate says model 02.40-6) in the detached garage. The chimney has two ninety degree turns (or three if I count the turn out the back of the unit) and does not draw very well. The chimney exits out the end wall and I am wondering if I re-route the chimney through the roof next year if I will get a better draft. Any thoughts or advice?
