Ducting gas pipe in the house

[Marvin]

When discussing the future kitchen design with brother-in-law the route of the gas main came up. 

 

Impossible to route gas pipe from main to boiler/cooker unless going through ceiling void or floor void. 

 

Can this be done?

From memory (but not a currently registered gas fitter ..!!) if you use tracpipe it can be put in ceiling and floor voids as it is ventilated at either end and the outer shell holds the inner pipe.

Yes I saw this product but was not sure what they were saying about the outer shell. Thanks.

TracpipeCC allows the pipe to be run through unvented areas as long as the ends are out of the unvented areas. Now we only have to check the positions of any lintels before finishing the design. Thanks PeterW.
