I'm removing the tiles in my kitchen.
We have 2 gas appliances. A gas hob and the boiler, both in the kitchen.
The gas supply comes in through the front of the house makes its way unseen through the living room and presumably comes up through the concrete floor by the oven where the hob is plumbed in. It then somehow makes its way to the boiler.
Upon removing the tiles in my kitchen it appears that the gas supply pipe to the boiler runs along the surface of the breeze blocks and is buried in plasterboard adhesive and then plasterboard has been placed over it. It exits the plasterboard just below the boiler.
This is slightly surprising to me as I had assumed it would be in a void chased into the breeze blocks. The use of plasterboard adhesive essentially to secure it seems unorthodox but what do i know?
I have attached a photo - opinions please.
