So I've seen quite a few installs where the furnace is mounted on an angle (to match the wall angle), and I've also read the manual that says "DO NOT MODIFY THE INTAKE OR EXHAUST PIPES." That being said, I am tempted to try one of three things:

1. Cut the stock pipe on an angle and weld it
2. Cut and install a flexible section (maybe not airtight?)
3. Purchase the optional extension kit and have it mandrel bent?

All three options would require a high temp flexible hose connection for the intake.

Any thoughts on this?
