Relocating combi from front of airing cupboard to the back

I had a Worcester Bosh comb installed by a reputable company last year. It was installed near the front of the airing cupboard on the side instead of at the back for me to have easy access. I found out last year that it does really meet the manufacturer's front clearance requirements although it can be accessed or serviced easily. It is guaranteed for 5 yrs labour and parts. I am concerned after the five years whether BG homecare will make fuss about the clearance in the front. I did raise this with the plumbing company who did the work and he has agreed to relocate it at the back free of charge. My husband is a bit concerned as he said removing and reinstalling might cause problem in the future. I told him they do that job a lot and his concern is unfounded. Shall I go ahead and have the boiler relocated for peace of mind or leave it as it is? The company is reliable and on the gas safe register. Thanks

    If they are willing to move it for nothing, then IMO it is a no brainer.

    Have them move it.

    It will still be under the remainder of the 5 year warranty.
