    Combi Boiler - condensate pipe/pressure valve

    Thanks Slugbabydotcom for that err information! Regardless of any regulations, the installers should have told me that this was required. Then i could have looked at alternative places to put the boiler. I bet he has it nicely installed in his house. Andy
