    Hi,

    can some tell me if it is possible to put our gas condensing boiler in an
    external boiler house, the structure will be insulated
    but will have no heat supply.
    it will be attached to the house but will onlt be accessable from the
    garden.

    is this possible ??

    possible but a pain in the ass if the settings are on the boiler since you will have to go into the garden to turn on the boost et cetera.

    its a new build, and i wanted to take the HW Cylinder out of the attic
    and the as it will be converted.
    the plumber advised to build a small boiler house onto the side of the
    house that can house all the tanks and pumps, we are using a pressurised system.
    i can put the boiler in the utility but u was thinking, as i have the boiler house there why not just have everything in it.
    ill have to get onto a few suppliers and see if they have anything that is suitable.

    cheers for the feedback
    Thanks
    Robert

    will you have to go into the boiler house every time you want turn it on or off, adjust temp.? is the mains pressure sufficient or do you need pumps?

    can someone clarify for me?

    the plumber has said that he has fitted load of gas boilers in boiler houses attached to the house. said he has never had a problem. all the pipes are lagged the structure will be well insulated etc.
    i know in my folks house the gas boiler was installed in the boiler house that the oil boiler used to be and there is no insulation and it is not even sealed,only has a wooden shed door??????

    i spoek to potterton and woschester bosh and they say neither of them do a boiler that is suitable. can anyone recommend one or advise me on it..

    thanks a million
