Re-site Combi-Boiler from Bedroom to Kitchen

[kwackerman]

Hi all,

Approx 7 years ago I had a new combi boiler fitted by British Gas, it's a C1 .

It was installed in the back bedroom upstairs ( I live in a normal sized 3 bed terrace house built in about 1920).

I would like to have this boiler moved downstairs into the kitchen which is in a single storey extension. Before I get anyone round for an official quote are there any potential problems with doing this?

The distance from the bedroom to where I would prefer the boiler to be fitted is approx 8 metres with an electrical supply to spur into right nearby. The gas supply pipe would also need extending to the kitchen.

Any idea roughly what price I am looking at?

Thanks for any help

Andy

There is more work moving a boiler than fitting a new one.

If its not condensing then I would say that its not worth moving it and its questionable that its permitted under the Building Regulations as it does not meet current standards which require a condensing boiler.

I would probably charge about £840 but without seeing its difficult to know whats involved.

Someone short of work might do it for about £300.

How longs a peice of string = 8 metres!!

Floor boards are normal plank type ( All involved rooms will be cleared and floor boards lifted prior to installation. No making good required.

Not sure what gad pipe is ...if you mean gas pipe then if from front of house where meter is then about 15 metres, if from the bedroom then 8.

Thanks for help
