    Boiler in loft - gas pressure.

    Hello, I plan to have my new boiler fitted in the loft, but I've been told that some people who have done have not had the pressure required in a higher location for the boiler to light. What is the likelyhood of this posing a problem to me? Is this something that is a common issue?
