How many vents for a 2.4 metres gas pipe box-in? Where is the best place to put vent?
Anonymous user 23/02/2024 - 2.48 PM
I have boxed in my combi boiler pipes and need to add a vent. How many vents do I need if the box-in is the full height of the room and where is the best place to put the vent. Thanks The combi boiler is in the kitchen, but the kitchen has a concrete floor. So they have ran the two water pipes and the gas pipe through the living room and down under the floorboard. I have boxed-in the three brass pipes in the living room and now need to sort out ventilation. I was unsure how much ventilation I need. Xpert Home Improvements (thanks for your help) have advised two will do it.
Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

If you are talking pipes, it has to be vented at the top and bottom of boxing in. If you have boxed in the flue the rules are very different.

Do you mean you have built a compartment around your boiler?
