Reconnecting fire after being capped

[bewsh]

You can do it, but need to cap the gas going to the bbu and have to leave everything in situ. You see a lot of people have removed the bbu burner/gas valve, but baxi say this is not allowed and is classed as at risk

I once found an old back boiler unit with the fire removed in a hallway once, opposite way round to what the op suggested but anything goes

Cheers for the replies.

Refer to TB091 for some info.
Baxi used to allow it some years ago as long as was done properly.
I heard some time ago they were no longer condoning it.
Best advice is to remove completely and fit new fire.

I just wouldn't do it, doesn't sit right with me, ok in theory you can make it safe, but is it worth putting your name to something like that? Not worth the few quid you will get for it
