ASHP putting buffer and expansion vessel in loft?

Hi all

Our OVO heat trial design is dragging, due to the installer saying our airing cupboard 750mm x 770mm x 2.4m being too small to put a Daikin 250 l UVC, buffer, expansion and the OVO monitoring kit in.


Question: is it possible to put the buffer and expansion vessel in the loft above the UVC?. Loads of space in there and I assume it would be possible to add insulation to those items in the loft. Are there building regs issues with this idea? Looks like others have done it.

 TIA

Jason

No issue with any of that. If you’re having a UVC in an airing cupboard where are they routing the PReV outlet to as it needs to be close to a drain. 

What is a PReV outlet? We have an overflow / blow out pipe (sorry not sure exact term) already so I assume it would reuse that, but it just goes to the outside wall at first floor and not a drain
