Quick question please, can the condensate drain from a condensing boiler be routed into the F and E tank in the loft via a condensate removal pump or must it be routed into a drain?
Thanks.
 
The condensate is acidic (pH= 2-4) so must not go into the F and E tank.
 
I can't quote a regulation. I'm not a plumber; nor, it seems is your GS 'engineer'. Any copper or brass pipework or valve in the system would be rapidly attacked by the acid.
