This is 35mm, you might struggle to find 32mm

hi,

does it matter what size pipe os used for the condensate?


is smaller better and less likely to freeze if lagged or 32mm lagged?


thanks

Mine is also 32mm and fully lagged still froze solid.Come to conclusion lagging does sweet FA in this weather...

 

[ravb]

it is extreme weather so yeah it wont make alot of difference, but you can try your best

Forget laggin it. Get it plumbed into waste pipe.

Oh dear, it is all you post about.

Just redirect it into a bucket in the freezing weather.

Simple, costs nothing, extremely reliable.

And does not damage the environment.

You have not been charged for this call.

Perhaps simond should add not all boilers are safe to run with the condensate disconnected.

Best to check the mi first.

True, there are a very small number built with no traps.

A Kidd for starters. See a lot of these in a bucket though.......
