Wireless receiver inside boiler

[mcniven]

Hi guys

Carrying out a landlord safety check today and I came across a wireless receiver just placed inside a boiler , not scorched and fully working a salus receiver

Is this allowed or what? I never seen any signs of damage burning or stress...

What do you think? Advised landlord best bet to have fitted outside

Was it fixed to anything? Or just resting in there? Surely not cool though!

 

[mcniven]

Just resting in there with a small bit of flex, leaning against condensate trap

The installation looked really well done like a decent contractor done the work, bgas for example

 

[Whn1]

Bgas!!!!!! 😉

Surely not good for servicing or maintainence purposes.

Yes, vokera's did that with the built in rf stats no where to put but place it some where "safe"

 

[hammers4spanner]

maybe a sparks turned up after to wire it in and just shoved it inside the boiler

 

[Whn1]

Wouldn't know where to look for a definate answer, I guess the mis don't say you can so you can't.

Be interested to see other peoples takes on this.

Honeywell receiver should be 300mm away from boiler casing. This is because of interference.

 

[mcniven]

Aye that's the only thing I see interference but this has been in 12months

It's strange to see a working salus, never mind one working while hidden in the boiler! Lol
