Good morning: I recommend a freephone call to CORGI and a look at the Gas Safety Regulations (1998) Part E, Section 28. I've previously post this link to a major manufacturer in regard to boiler installation requirements in lofts.

I did call CORGI, and it does need all the things listed here http://www.glow-worm.co.uk/products/homeowner_faq.asp
I guess that makes it a problem in our loft. :rolleyes:

Thanks,
Janine

Hi..sounds as if you might have to go with one of the more expensive and disruptive options:sad:

Good luck.

The guy who installed mine only 'implied' it was, it does make sense to have one, if there is an emergency and you need rapid access you don't want to be rummaging in the garage for a ladder.

Im sorry i cant say for sure..(its been a while)

this is not regulation but simply guidance the key thing when dealing with regs is the word "should" "may" and "must".......
