I wish to add a second boiler to my existing meter. Location 20m away. Underground run. Can l use 32mm yellow pipe with copper tails at each end. Thank you in advance
 
What size are your existing and proposed boilers kw
 
Hi Shaun. Thank you for the reply. Both 9kw. Will the meter be able to supply that volume of gas....

So heat only boiler in theory yes you should be fine providing the gas safe engineer works out there pipesizing etc
 
It's a 6m3/h meter Shaun will that cope with 18kw.... Is there any reason l can't use 35mm plastic yellow gas pipe after the meter under the ground. Thank you. Matt

Yes stnd domestic meter

The gas engineer can but it’s a bit more labour in installing it as it needs special fittings and practices to terminate above ground
