RE: Combi boilers question...

["Phil Harris" <phillip.harris1@xxxxxxx>]

Title: Message

I have an airing cupboard which is central to the house and that is where I would like to mount the boiler as it is the easiest place to get to all the pipework (that's where the pipework for both the hot water and heating actually tap off the flow and return feeds that run to the boiler which is sited way off in the kitchen.

 

All that will need doing is the gas supply extending up into there (which shouldn't be too hard for an installer) and the flue taking out of the roof space (which is more problemmatical). The only convenient boundary wall to place it on would either be in a bedroom (not nice) or on the starwell (also not nice as it's open into the living room). Loft mounting would be possible but using the airing cupboard would result in about a 4ft run of pipework before hitting the shower or the bath!

I have mine in my old airing cupboard. But I also have a shallow roof.

If you want more info, Im off home at 2pm - I have the manual is that would help. Maybe think about siting it in the loft space on the wall - wish we'd done that instead, keep more space below.

Normal or fan-assisted ?

<<Haven't decided yet...>>
 
My fan assisted has a max of around 1.5metres - it's a Worcester combi.

Flues that use the vacuum (such as in flats) can have very long lengths...
 
<<Good ... I am trying to find out whether I can get a combi boiler fitted in my airing cupboard which would then require a vent of a good 3m. This would explain why some people have said yes it can be done and some have said it can't...>>
