Hi all arms members ,
Need a bit off advice , have job to price . Existing boiler is in the kitchen and customer wants it move up stairs in the airing cupboard .
They have a heat only but willing to have a combi boiler .
Pressure is 4 bar with 22 L of water .
Getting boiler in airing cupboard will be easy just the gas pipe is a mission to do as there is the green floor boards , Out side run impossible as there is clay tiles on the wall so can not clip the pipe work .
Customer is not willing to keep boiler in kitchen but at the same time is not willing to have carpenter to take up flooring as to mach disruption to there house .
I am willing to install system boiler in the kitchen but they have a plan to have conservatory installed later on , boiler is on the back wall of the kitchen right in the middle of the wall .
Here it comes my Q:
what can I do to install boiler and later when they have conservatory to convert it so flue to go up . Is it ok to have a bout 400mm horizontal flue (which is standard flue ) and then convert it with elbow to go up and have a vertical flue .
But then will have a issue with vertical as it need to be min 500mm from the wall ?
Could i from the 400mm horizontal flue turn it side way and then run flue along the wall and then ant the end off the conservatory which will be like 2000mm put a plum kit?
What would have you done as way of preparing and be ready for when conservatory is installed to have it easy in order to run the flue ?
Much appreciate your response ,
Stan
