I am having a new C/H system fitted next week. Where the boiler is to be mounted is a bare concrete block wall. Is it safe to put a plywood lining over the concrete for the boiler to mount to and, if so, what is best plywood to use? I seen a picture of a boiler mounted in this fashion which made me wonder on the safety aspects.
T.I.A.
 
TBH what are you doing to the block wall after if it's staying the same get it mounted to it if it's being plastered then put some ply behind the boiler etc
 
The wall will be getting plastered then painted as it is in a recess (visible) in my hallway. Just wasn't sure if plywood would be an option.
Thanks guys.
 
What boiler you going for ?
 
What!!!!!!! Mount onto a combustible surface.
You got to be taking the #######
Let me see let's use garden hose for gas feed as well!!!!!!!!!!
And plastic straight of boiler feeds.
M Is come to mind or don t we bother with them.
Nothing wrong with mounting a modern boiler onto ply.
It’s not 1970:D
 
18 birch ply over a pantry window . Board window with 18mm plaster board either side . Intumescent mastic to edges and mount boiler over boarded window in garage. Birch play over plater fixed to brickwork around window. will last 60 mins in a fire. Board really is just structural support over a void.
