Can i move my boiler?
Have a ground floor flat, boiler located in 2nd bedroom. I personally don't see that i can move it, well only to the kitchen.
My flat consists of:
lounge with kitchen off it, from lounge walk into a square, where all rooms (2 bedrooms/bathroom lead off) and then i have storage under the stairs which are upstairs stairs, if that makes sense.
I have no loft space as the upstairs flat gets that.
Im pretty sure a boiler couldn't go under the stairs as a flue would have no where to go, so my only option seems to be the kitchen or could i get a better boiler for the 2nd bedroom.
Is it unsafe to have a gas boiler in a bedroom?
The bedroom is used sometimes when i unfortunately kick my bf out to it for snoring. We have a co2 alarm in the room for safety, never gone off and we had the boiler looked at when i was convinced i smelt gas and even though the gas people said they could smell it faintly it didn't get a reading on the machine they use to test, so it was passed.
