Hi
I just had new central heating fitted which includes a radiator in the bathroom. The boiler is in a cupboard in the bathroom and the pipes coming out the bottom are cross bonded together.
I’m wondering if the pipes at the bathroom radiator need supplementary bonding to something or if it is not necessary as the boiler is close by and the cross bonding there takes care of it ?
The current supplementary bonding in the bathroom runs from the pipes just below the bath taps to the pipes just below the basin then out of the room under the floor and connects to the earth in a junction box on the upstairs ring main just outside the bathroom. (Presumably because the shaver socket and extractor fan are on spurs from the upstairs ring.)
If any additional bonding is advisable then I’d like to get it sorted now before I put the bathroom back together.
Any comments ?
Thanks.
