Hi There,
I am currently experiencing problems with condensation in my loft. I have an upstairs combi boiler and the flue runs vertically through the loft space on vents out the top of the roof. When I feel the outside of the flue pipe it feels quite warm to the touch.
I spoke to a roofer recently regarding the condensation problem and he says that the boiler flue should be double skinned and if so then it shouldn't feel warm if I touch it. He says that this may be the cause or at least contributing to the condensation problem in the loft space, as it is effectively a heat source in the cold loft space.
Can anyone advise on this?
Many thanks.
