Due consideration should be given
to the routing of the condensate
drain from the chosen position.
&
If the boiler is to be fitted in a timber
framed building it should be fitted in
accordance with the British Gas
publication
‘
Guide for Gas Installa-
tions In Timber Frame Housing
’
,
reference DM2. If in doubt, advice
must be sought from British Gas.
&
If the appliance is to be installed in a
room containing a bath or shower,
any electrical switch or control utilis-
ing mains electricity, it must be so
situated, that it cannot be touched
by a person using the bath or
shower. Attention is drawn to the
requirements of BS 7671 (the cur-
rent I.E.E Wiring Regulations) and
in Scotland the electrical provisions
of the Building Regulations applic-
able in Scotland.
&
A compartment used to enclose the
appliance must be designed and
constructed specifically for this pur-
pose. An existing cupboard or com-
partment may be used provided it is
modified accordingly. BS 5376:2
gives details of the essential fea-
tures of cupboard / compartment
design, including airing cupboards
&
Where installation will be in an unu-
sual location, special procedures
may be necessary. BS 6798 gives
detailed guidance on this aspect.
