Can I direct (side) vent a residential boiler?

Sean_10

I have a Peerless oil burning boiler that was venting through an old chimney stack that needs to be dismantled for a number of reasons. Because of this I need to find another method of venting my boiler. The easiest way for me to do this seems to be to direct (side) vent the unit. I can't find any information in the boiler installation guide that tells me I can vent it this way.

I'm a carpenter with very little experience in thia area so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,
Sean

Yes, you can use a power vent.
