Mr Wormwood , you are out of order disagreeing with my thread closed statement , you are clearly "picking everybodys brains" on here , I saw this thread develop and thats why I left it alone . Leave the gas alone !!!!!!
really !He was wrong. The solution is to find the 22-15 reducer, which I now know is on the inside of the house. I also know, thanks to the helpful people here (Shaun, Snowhead, GH77 & kop, etc), that I could stick with 15mm if the pressure drop does not exceed regs, or contradict the new boiler's pipe spec.
Question you say that you have a glow worm Balanced Flue boiler, is this a standard boiler with hot water tank ? and is it being replaced (Upgraded to a combi) ? or are you just having a boiler swap ?
If you are really going to hire a fully gas qualified engineer then you could ask him directly as he will surely give you then an update on your questions.What's the point of the forum if people can't come here and ask for advice!
The reason I disagreed with your post 33 is that it agreed with Chalked, who said in post 31 that I should use a GSR. I have already stated countless times that I will not touch the gas myself and will use a GSR!!!
I am trying to establish whether there is an alternative to running 20 feet of 22mm pipe on the outside of the house, across two doors, one window and through one gate. This was the only solution offered by the installer mentioned in post 13.

Right wormwood..... if you disagree with an engineers advice about upgrading pipe sizes then I can assure you that it's really common nowadays because of the gas consumption difference between older boilers and new condensers ...
.... the common theme on this thread is people continuously stating " use a gsr" and wormwood saying he will...
The picture I posted doesn't tell you how to carry out a procedure, it does clarify that what the gsr said about pressures is correct, was used to reassure that the gsr does know what he's talking about . the common theme on this thread is people continuously stating " use a gsr" and wormwood saying he will . but yes now the thread should be closed before it all gets too heated
Right mate so post 11 doesn't explain anything, I never mentioned your name so don't presume I did thanks
Before it is closed would you give me your full names, dob and the pin number to your credit card?I have asked admin for this thread to be closed.
Wow I'm banging my head , deaf ears ,,,
I know we help Shaun but your twisting the hole thing , if I'm working in someone's house then they HAVE A GSR THERE, THEY ARENT GOING TO TRY THEMSELVES IF IM DOING IT, , Also
Shaun I know we don't close as many as croppie used to and it's more laxed but why o why does it flash across the top of the forum in RED , we don't give advice on Gas , if the rules changed that wouldn't flash , please scroll up to the top and wait till it appears,
Like I said I'll easy help even with gas until it passes the threshold , I'm out
You again have disagreed and it will happen more often because it seems a little bit odd that you want to know things in detail. It's fine with us but it has to be asked outside of this forum when your gas safe installer comes. He will surely explain you all you need to know. It is a public forum and people on he will give you as much as advise which is needed anything regarding gas will be not answered as matter of safety. Do not take things wrong it's just a safety reason that's all it is.Right kris. I have not disagreed with an engineer's advice about pipe sizes. I have disagreed with first engineer's advice that the only option is to run the pipe on the outside of the house (post 37).
Fact: there are two options - inside and outside.
Inside is the advice given by the engineer on Friday and this is the route he will use. End of.
Btw, If I say I won't touch something - it means I won't touch something. Full stop.
Same as Shaun, if i've broken any forum rules then I would like clarification from the administration . unlike Shaun i'm new to the site, so I would like official clarification if i'm in the wrong .. if i am then i will hold my hands up and take it on the chin like a big boy . i only want to help out
