From a discussion over a new combi boiler :
Not quite sure which of the boilers being discussed croydoncorgi was referring to here, but we are having a Worcestor Greenstar 25Si installed on a 15mm gas inlet pipe that seems to go as far back as the cooker (3 metres of pipe), and probably all the way to the meter (about 10 metres).
Is this going to be a disaster? Will the difference just cause the boiler to underperform, or will it lead to it breaking down sooner? Or will it not be a problem?
Replacing the pipes would be a major piece of work.
Any advice would be much appreciated. Ta.
EDIT: Corrected model number
