I HAVE JUST HAD A WEIL MCLAIN CGS6 DIRECT VENT BOILER INSTALLED AND MY NEIGHBOR WHO'S WINDOW IS 20' AWAY HAS COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SOUND WHEN THE BOILER IS ON. WEIL MCLAIN SAYS THEY HAVE NEVER HAD SUCH A COMPLAINT BEFORE IN THE ENTIRE UNITED STATES ! AND IS PROVIDING NO SOLUTIONS, WITH AN ATTITUDE. I THINK THE SOUND IS JUST OVER THE BORDER OF BEING NON ACCEPTABLE BUT I WANT TO MAKE IT QUIETIER FOR MY GOOD NEIGHBOR ANYWAY. WOULD ENLARGING THE EXHAUST FLUE FROM 4" HELP? IS THERE ANY TYPE OF BAFFLE OR MUFFLER THAT WOULD HELP? I DONT WANT TO RAISE THE FLUE UP TO THE ROOF FOR ECONOMIC AND AESTHETIC REASONS. THANKS
