Gas pipe routing querey

[wedge69]

Hi,

The gas meter in my house is at the front left corner. In our kitchen, on the back right wall (so amlmost diagonaly opposite the main) is a gas tap for a cooker.

My question is this - what is the standard way to route the gas piping - the reason I ask is mainly out of curiosity (and so I don't accidentaly screw into anything!).

We have a solid concrete floor downstairs, plasterboard walls, and the combi boiler is in the airing cupboard in the centre of the upstairs, if this makes any difference. The house was built in the mid-eighties.

Cheers

unfortunately there is no common standard. It may come up from the floor or straight down from the ceiling. All depends who and why and when it was fitted. The gas installer at the time would have taken the easiest route
