Hi everyone,
I chap I know rents out a flat that has a Baxi Bermuda back boiler and fire in what used to be the living room.
He has recently rented the property out and his new tennants have converted the living room into a bedroom. Now, British Gas have been to do an annual check and service and have classed the boiler as AR on the basis that an Open flued appliance above 14KW cannot be installed in a bedroom. I had assumed this classification to be correct until I spoke to Gas Safe to confirm. I was told that, assuming the appliance passes all servicing and inspections, it can be classed as NCS as long as it was installed before 1996. Needless to say, the fella confirmed to me that it was installed in 1984.
Can somebody please confirm this for me as at present I don't have access to any literature to check myself (hence me ringing gas safe).
Many thanks for any help.
Martin
