High Efficiency Furnace Problems And Reviews

Question: Can you vent a high efficiency furnace out the side of the house?

I just purchased a house and would like to put in a wood furnace. The chimney is already being used to vent a high efficiency propane 135000 btu furnace. I was wondering if its possible to vent the propane furnace out the side of the house, into just some kind of exterior vent.

You could but remember the exhaust contains a large amount of water vapor. This may lead to rot or mildew around it. Check with a pro and your local codes.
