new boiler vent?

[milner]

Hello

I am having a new boiler fitted soon, and would like to enquire about if my new boiler will need a vent pipe in the wall? I have lpg at the house and the boiler is being moved to the airing cupboard? Will it need a vent to stop gasses building up on the floor or will the new twin wall flue (balanced?) do this job?

Thanks in advance

David

What does your plumber say

Thanks for your reply bod. I have not asked him, I didnt like to pesture him about such a small query. Do gas boilers need a vent in case of gas leaks or is this a myth?

Depends on the boiler Milner

okay thanks, I am having a worcester 30 cdi. the plumber has highly recommended it

That's a room sealed boiler so doesn't need a vent but will obviously need the flue to exit the premises

Thanks, i only thought it might need one because my lpg campervan has to have low level floor vents inc case of the leak of lpg. I was not sure if my new lpg boiler would need one.

It's a permennat dwelling so therefore is the same as a natural gas appliance BS 5440-2 I think it is
