Boiler distance from kitchen sink

[Mgrant]

Hi is there a set distance a combi boiler has to be away from a kitchen sink?

 

[tamz]

Probably 6" to get a spanner in

 

[Howsie]

Yes electrically. No from a plumbing perspective.

 

[Mgrant]

So there's no real set distance like the zones in bathrooms, the fused spur for the boiler could just be positioned the other side of the boiler or something so its further away from the sink?

 

[Howsie]

Why do you ask?

 

[Dotty]

This a serious question?

 

[tamz]

Probably came across a boiler sitting on the draining board

 

[lame plumber]

As long as the dishwasher can reach the sink, does it matter where the boiler goes

James the First,

You have us all confused, is it because you think its like a power socket or is it because of dead leg run to hot kitchen tap, most kitchen taps have a big window in front of them (NOT ALL I KNOW) so what's the point of your question.

the regulation covering this is BS 12345CommonSense from memory

so if water spray or steam can get at the appliance then its probably not a good position.
