Height of new boiler ..........

[Murdoch]

Chaps,

I'm a spark and working on a refit ..... the GSE is going to put the new boiler on the wall very close to the floor - is this OK?

Never seen one low on a floor before.

Thanks

If it's to M.I's then it's ok. Going to be a right tw@t to work on in future though, accessing valves etc. Sounds like he's a F.I.F.O merchant!

Normally most require 4-6" below the boiler

Any reason why he's fitted it so low ?

To get the flue out below a window

Being done on Friday, but I have to extend the cables I first fixed. Grrrrr

Can't be under a window, unless he can achieve the correct clearance.
