3.2 General
requirements
3.2.1 Related
documents
The installation of the boiler must be in accordance with
the relevant requirements of Gas Safety
(Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, Health and
Safety Document No. 635 (The Electricity at Work
Regulations 1989), BS7671 (IEE Wiring Regulations) and
the Water Supply (Water Fitting) Regulations 1999, or
The Water Bylaws 2000 (Scotland). It should also be in
accordance with the relevant requirements of the Local
Authority, Building Regulations, The Building
Regulations (Scotland). The Building Regulations
(Northern Ireland) and the relevant recommendations of
the following British Standards:

Furthermore it is essential that the boiler is installed,
operated and maintained in accordance with the current
state of the art. This applies likewise to the hydraulic
system, the flue gas installation and the installation site.
3.2.2 Installation
site
The location chosen for the boiler must permit the
provision of a satisfactory flue termination. The location
must also provide adequate space for servicing and air
circulation around the boiler. The boiler may be installed
in any room, although particular attention is drawn to
the requirements of BS 7671 (IEE Regulations), the
electrical provisions of the Building Regulations
(Scotland) and in IE the current edition of IS 813 and the
current ETCI rules, in respect of the installation of a
boiler in a room containing a bath or shower.
h
Note!
Where a room sealed boiler is installed in a
room containing a bath or shower, any
electrical switch or boiler control utilising
mains electricity should be so situated that it
cannot be touched by a person using the bath
or shower.
Where the installation of the boiler will be in an unusual
location, special procedures may be necessary and
BS 5546 and BS 6798 give detailed guidance on this
aspect. The boiler must be mounted on a flat, vertical
wall, which must be sufficiently robust to take the
weight of the boiler. The boiler may be installed on a
combustible wall, subject to the requirements of the
Local Authorities and Building Regulations. A
compartment used to enclose the boiler must be
designed and constructed specifically for this purpose.
(An existing cupboard or compartment may be used
provided that it is modified for the purpose). Details of
essential features of cupboard/compartment design
including airing cupboard installations are given in
BS 6891. In IE the current edition of IS 813.
