Gas Wall Heaters query

Options
Thinking of having one of these installed in a room dowstairs.

http://www.plumbnation.co.uk/site/baxi-brazilia-f5-gas-wall-heater/

There isnt a gas pipe in that room at he moment so does anyone know what sort of pipework/gas supply is required for such a heater & also if its possible to get such a pipe to lead from an existing gas CH radiator (which is the next room)?

Thanks

    baxi brazilias just require a normal 15mm copper gas pipe to them.

    im not sure what you mean by a gas CH radiator in the next room?
    normal CH rads only have two water pipes connected.

    Size could also depend on the length of the gas supply pipe.

    .

    We used to have a fluless fire in that room (on another wall) I take it that pipe could be used to supply the wall heater. But its not a 15 mm pipe.

    What are the typical costs of installing such a wall heater (approx)?

    true, but only on a pretty long run.
    generally 15mm will be the norm.

    so what size pipe is it?

    as a rough guide, id guess approx 100/200 quid to fit the baxi.
    maybe more in london area.
