Boiler Siting

[Marky]

Hi all,

wondered if you can help please.

Swapping an old Ariston combi with Ideal Icos (not my choice). At present boiler is right next to cooker with high level grill sited 10mm away from boiler casing approx 100m from bottom. Customer wants this in same place but I am concered with clearances (MI's give no help)
Could anyone give some advice please??

Thanks

Check clearances in cooker MI. There needs to be 150mm horizontally from side of h/l grille to a height of 610mm above top of grille.

If you are taking out a combi do you mean an Isar? Although I can think of no specific regulation to prevent this, I would not do it as I think it would be risky because of the heat from the cooker/grill and is just bad working practice.

Can you not fit in another position or get the cooker moved away?

One of the local cowboys around here fitted a boiler over a cooker, customer was frying chips and had chip pan fire, not much left of the boiler

God know how the whole thing didn't ignite the gas supply

Cheers - exactly my thoughts. Not judt the heat, but the grease etc.
