boiler location

[robert12]

i am looking at having a combi boiler fitted to replace my old system boiler
can the new boiler be located in the bathroom
i appreciate the electrics and the damp don't go well together
is there any reason why it can't be fitted in the bathroom (any regs that says not)

No. I have a boiler in the bathroom.
There are defined areas where it can fit and you need to check
the electrical rating of the boiler.
But otherwise ok. Personally I would opt for putting it in a cupboard
of some sort to keep the boiler dry. Bathrooms get damp
by their nature and this doesn't work well with electrics.

There are some areas in the bathroom where you cannot install a boiler, these are identified in the boiler manufacturer instructions.
