Condence termination problem

[novicegas]

Is it ok to terminate the condence in rain water guttering that terminates in a water drain. Cheers

It's not ideal........ Make sure you fit a tundish as seen many a flooed boiler as when down pipe blocks up it just fills boiler burner till it spews out of fan

 

[lame plumber]

why would you need to use a gutter ??

No your not supposed to, has to be a waste water drain not rain water. Seen loads done like it though with no issues, apart from what Ermi said.

Must be a better way. Condense pump?

BG dont bother worryin, if your unlucky the local water company will do you for contamination, but hey more chance of being hit by a fart in a sewage farm.

Surely if its a combined system its ok? Not ideal agreed, but as long as there is an air break with tundish or hopper it would work.

Obviously if its a separate RW/foul then no no.
