Firstly - I'm not going to be doing any gas work myself - just trying to make sure I know a bit about this before getting quotes.
I'm keen to get a combi boiler installed in our airing cupboard. There is an existing gas supply here, but the pipe work is hidden under the concrete floors for most of it's length, so it's sizing between the gas meter end (where it's 1 3/8") and the airing cupboard (where it's 7/8") is unknown.
Is there any way of testing the gas flow / pressure available to see if it will be able to support a fairly large boiler (something like a Vaillant 837)?
If we can avoid running a new supply this would be enormously preferable as the pipe length from one end to the other is about 15m and there isn't an obvious route available.
Look forward to your replies.
