    Can copper piping be used for condensate drain pipe from combi boiler

    Condensate pump recommendation?

    I've never ever had to fit a condensate pump before, always found a way to run one in overflow to a soakaway or whatnot. But got a job coming up where I really don't think there's any other way to do it. Can anyone recommend a good, reliable condensate pump? Should be as small and quiet as possible!

    Intergas System Boiler Condensate Trap Protrudes Below Bottom Cover

    I am just installing an Intergas Compact SB40 boiler but the condensate trap protrudes about 15 cm below the bottom cover. It is unsightly and frankly a design nonsense. The other boilers in the range are all smaller and the condensate trap is also smaller and is concealed by the cover. Do you...

    I recently bought a new house, and have notice that the neighbours have a pipe that sticks out of their wall about 2 inches and hangs over my brick driveway. What initially believed to be some sort of overflow pipe now looks to be a condensate pipe from a boiler, as it only drip for a small...

    Hi, I have an Altech Alcon PM condensate pump a few feet underneath my boiler. It has been activating approximately every 5 seconds for most of the day. I don't have a clue why or what it is even for, but this is not usual for my house and wondered if anyone could suggest a cure? Looking at...

    Baffling condensate pump problem

    Hi 4 years’ ago I had a Worcester Bosch Greenstar Ri boiler installed. Due to its location, a Sauermann condensate-removal pump was also fitted. For the first three years, no problems, but then the pump began to operate every few minutes whether the boiler was operating or not. I have an...

    Dodgy condensate pipe?

    My neighbour had his boiler re-sited upstairs in 2012. The condensate pipe comes out of the wall, bends directly down vertically and ends about an inch above the lean-to over his drive - our drive is adjacent to his drive. The condensate then rolls about 10ft down the lean-to and into a gutter...
