flue passing through an outside wall or roof and
discharging to atmosphere in a position permitting
satisfactory removal of combustion products and
providing an adequate air supply. The boiler should be
fitted within the building unless otherwise protected by a
suitable enclosure i.e. garage or outhouse. (The boiler
may be fitted inside a cupboard - see Section 7.2).

recommended to incorporate an appropriate device for
frost protection in the system controls.

shower, it can only be fitted in zone 3, (Figs. A & B shows
zone dimensions for a bathtub. For other examples refer

Building Regulations.
In IE reference should be made to the current edition of
I.S. 813 "Domestic Gas Installations" and the current
