Boiler location

[bikerbas]

Hello
If fitting a combi boiler into a airing cuboard in the centre of the house ,how would you get the safety discharge valve to the outside wall is there a maximum length.
Could you run 15mm copper into the loft and then out onto the gable end?

no you cant go up with the discharge ,it must fall from the boiler . cant you run it under the floor to an external wall. if not some manufacturers do a remote discharge kit which can be piped into the return to the boiler .seen so many going up though .

regards ant

as long as waste/ condensate pipe can handle high temp water discharge
