Boiler on outside wall

[orangeman]

I'm looking to get a new boiler installed on an outside wall in our back garden - the reason being that the one we have that's gone pear-shaped sits in the corner of the front room.

I've been phoning around for quotes and an engineer said that he doesn't know of any boiler manufacturer that will give a warranty for a boiler stationed outside.

Is this right?

dunno about domestic but you can get commercial boilers to fit outside

I've just spoken with Worcester and with Vaillant and so long as the casing is purpose-built and weatherproofed, they're happy

I didn't think makers liked boilers outside either.

like the sig pedantic

I use it all the time, very amusing to see the different reactions from people, particularly those who had their sense of humour removed at birth, mostly women
