15mm Gas Pipe Installation Limits Information, help and advice on many gas related subjects from gas fires to domestic appliances

[JR656]

What is the minimum distance a 15mm domestic gas pipe can be fitted to a hot water pipe? Are there any remedies if they are close eg. insolation?

Are there any other regulations regarding their positioning eg. electric cables, enclosed spaces?

Don't think so within the house. Think it's 8 inches if they are underground.


Rule of thumb might be how close are the gas and water inlets on your boiler?
