NIreland Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Having over spent on unexpected items we've had to put our plans for a garage to a halt. We planned to put the boiler in garage but without the garage where to we locate the boiler, inside or outside? Ufh downstairs and rads upstairs. Any thoughts would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dpmiller Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 presuming oil... do you want to build an external "boilerhouse" or would you mind a fabricated unit? Or have you somewhere inside where an oily smell wouldn't be a problem? I put a Turkington condensing jobbie in the current place and it's very neat. the Combi version is a touch bigger but it's still quite a small box. Great boiler, well impressed. http://www.turco.co.uk/countryman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProDave Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 A properly installed oil boiler will NOT produce any smells inside the house. In our old house it i in the utility room without issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickfromwales Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Stinks a bit when servicing it properly, and a full baffle seeep isn't the cleanest of jobs. Utility at the very best imo. @NIreland what about buying an external oil boiler ( if we're assuming oil ) and leave it outside ready for relocation when you do have a garage. Then just use the digger for your founds to chop you a path for the pipework, and bingo. No noise, no smell, and can be serviced without entry to the property. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIreland Posted September 19, 2017 Author Share Posted September 19, 2017 It's oil, have space in utility room , must check with plumber what type it is and see if anyone has any experiences with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickfromwales Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Oh, sorry, are you saying you already have the boiler ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
