New Gas pipe to the boiler

Anonymous user 03/03/2024 - 3.19 PM

Hi, I wanted some advice regarding gas pipe. At the moment my gas meter is in the garage and the boiler in the utility room next door. I’m intending to replace the old boiler (at least 25yrs old) in a different location in the utility room. As I wood need a new gas pipe from meter to boiler I can only think of 2 options but don’t know if the 2nd option is legal. 1- move the gas meter onto the outside wall so the new location of the boiler is on the other side 2- take the gas pipe up in between the floorboards across and into the new location of the boiler in the utility room. Thank you

Option 2 is perfectly legal as long as it’s gas tight,

nothing wrong with option 2 but this needs to be done by a gas safe person and they will advise the best route/options
