    I have not seen one installed. It comes up every now and again. There is another thread somewhere about this type of boiler.

    It will work, sure, but why would you not just heat the room with electric heaters? It will be just as cheap (i.e., not cheap at all) and probably a lot cheaper to install.

    Storage heaters are probably a better option.

    How is it heated at the moment?

    Could you get a few little water pipes inside instead ?

    The Balcony HE boiler is unique to the Ireland market and has specifically been designed to withstand typical weather conditions

    Its full IPX5D rating enables this boiler to be installed outside on a balcony or an external wall, with an optional galvanised casing available for security or additional protection.

    Have you looked into vertical flues for your gas boiler?
